HEY MATE HERE IS UR ANSWER

the reagent which is totally consumed when the reaction is complete the amount of product formed is limited by the reagent condition for limiting reagent @1-chemical reaction must be balanced 2-calculate the number of mole from extracted data 3-divide the number of moles through stoic biometry coefficient 4-the mole which is present in lesser quantity the reagent is consider as limiting reagent 5-the reagent which present in excess quantity is known as excess reagent.

shamamujahid12: Example for two reactants. Consider the combustion of benzene, represented by the following chemical equation: ... If in fact 18 mol O2 are present, there will be an excess of (18 - 11.25) = 6.75 mol of unreacted oxygen when all the benzene is consumed. Benzene is then the limiting reagent.

Explanation:

For a chemical reaction to proceed to completion , the reactants need to be in amounce as required by a balanced chemical equation. When it is not so one reactant is in access over the other.

The amount of the product formed then it depends upon the reactant which gets consumed.

This reactant which gets consumed , limits the amount of the product formed and is called the limiting reagent.
