Answer: nitrogen

Explanation:

Converting 5.78 g of hydrogen to moles, we know that the formula mass of hydrogen is about 2(1.00794)=2.01588 g/mol, so 5.78 grams is about 5.78/2.01588=2.867 mol.
Converting 6.28 g of nitrogen to moles, we know that the formula mass of nitrogen is about 2(14.0067)=28.0134 g/mol, so 6.28 grams is about 6.28/28.0134 = 0.22417 mol.

From the equation, we know that for every 3 moles of hydrogen consumed, 1 mole of nitrogen is consumed.

Considering the hydrogen, the reaction can occur 2.867/3=0.955 times.
Considering the nitrogen, the reaction can occur 0.22417 times.

Therefore, <u>nitrogen</u> is the limiting reactant.

If you have 2 Moles of C3H6 and 10 Moles of O2, which reactant is limiting the following reaction: 2C3H6 + 9O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O?

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The limiting reactant is propene, $C_3H_6$ .

Explanation:

$2C_3H_6 + 9O_2 \rightarrow 6CO_2 + 6H_2O$

Moles of nitrogen propene = 2 mol

Moles of oxygen = 10 mol

According to reaction, 2 moles of propene reacts with 9 moles of oxygen gas, then 2 moles of propene will react with:

$=\frac{9}{2}\times 2mol=9\text{mol of oxygen gas}$

According to the question, we have 10 moles of oxygen gas, which is more than 9 moles of oxygen gas. This indicates that propene is present in a limiting amount hence, it is a limiting reactant.

The limiting reactant is propene, hence the correct answer is the $C_3H_6$ .
