what is limiting reagent
Answers
Answer:
Answer:
✍ Many a time, the reactions are carried out when the reactants are not present in the amount as required by a balanced chemical reaction.
✍ In such situations, one reactant is in excess over the other. This reactant which is present in the lesser amount gets consumed after sometime and after that no for the reaction takes place where be the amount of the other reactant present.
✍ Hence the reactant which gets consumed, limits the amount of product formed and is therefore called Limiting Reagent.
Note
✍ In performing stoichiometric calculations this aspect is also to be kept in mind.
Answer:
the limiting reagent and limiting reactant is a reactant in a chemical reaction that determine the amount of product that is formed the reason there is a limiting reactant is that element and compounds react according to the mole ratio between them in a balanced chemical equation.
