The limiting reagent when 5 g of NaOH and 4.4 g CO₂ allowed to react will be NaOH
<h3>What is Limiting reagent ?</h3>
The limiting reactant (or limiting reagent) is the reactant that gets consumed first in a chemical reaction and therefore limits how much product can be formed.
Given chemical equation in balanced form ;
2NaOH(s) + CO₂(g) → Na₂CO₃(s) + H₂O(l).
According to the Chemical equation ;
- The limiting reagent when 5 g of NaOH and 4.4 g CO₂ allowed to react will be NaOH
If 44 g CO₂ requires 80 g of NaOH, therefore, 4.4 g CO₂ will require atleast 8 g of NaOH.
But the available quantity is 5 g NaOH. thus, NaOH is the Limiting reagent.
- 6.625 g of Na₂CO₃ are expected to be produced 5.0 g of NaOH and 4.4 g of CO₂ are allowed to react
As 80 g NaOH produces 106 g of Na₂CO₃.
Therefore 5 g NaoH will produce ;
106 / 80 x 5 = 6.625 g
