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:
when reactants react to form product.
And if there is some reactants which is less as compared to others then that consume first
and known as LIMITING REAGENT.
Can be find by the concept of stoichiometry
