Question

when 3 mole of hydrogen gas react with 2 mole of Oxygen gas . water is formed write balance chemical equation​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The reactant that produces a lesser amount of product is the limiting reagent.

2H

2

​

+O

2

​

→2H

2

​

O

Here 2 moles of H

2

​

 require 1 mole of O

2

​

.

But if we take 2 moles of O

2

​

 & 2 moles of H

2

​

. Still only 2 moles of H

2

​

O will be produced because of the limited amount of H

2

​

So, H

2

​

 is the limiting reagent.
