Transcript of Limiting Reactant A.K.A. Stoichiometry. One reactant remains while the other is consumed in a...
One reactant remains while the other is consumed in a reaction
Mole ratio will help determine the limiting reaction
Need to create a conversion pathway
How do we determine which reactant limits the product?
Which reactant remains when 6.70 mole Na reacts with 3.2o moles of Cl2 2 Na + Cl22 NaCl
Which reactant is the limiting reactant?
Step 1
Moles of reactant
Moles of product
Which reactant is the limiting reactant when 3.5 g Cu reacts with 6.0 g AgNO3?
Cu + AgNO3Cu(NO3)2 + Ag; balanced?
Cu + 2 AgNO3Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag
Limiting Reactant and Mass-Mass Conversions
We have 3.5 g Cu and 6.0 g AgNO3
Create a Conversion Pathway
Cu + 2 AgNO3Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag
Step 1
Mass of Reactant
Moles of Reactant
Step 2
Moles ofProduct
Step 3
Mass of Product
