Consider this reaction: 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light equation C6H12O6 + 6 O2 If there were 2.38 x 102 g of H2O, 18.6 moles of CO2, and

plenty of light, which reactant would be the limiting reactant?

H₂O would be the limiting reactant.

Balanced chemical equation:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light equation → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

The amount of product that can be created is constrained by the reactant that is consumed first in a chemical reaction, commonly referred to as the limiting reactant (or limiting reagent).

Given

No. of moles of CO₂ = 18.6

Mass of H₂O = 2.38 × 10² g = 238g

No. of moles of H₂O = Given mass/ Molar mass

                                = 238 / 18 = 13.22 moles

Moles of H₂O = 13.22

According to the balanced chemical equation

6 moles of CO₂ react with 6 moles of H₂O

So the reactant that has less number of moles will be consumed first.

As the No. of moles of H₂O < No. of moles of CO₂

So, H₂O is the limiting reactant with 13.22 moles.

Hence, H₂O would be the limiting reactant.

Complete the equation for the conversion of sucrose into glucose <br> (1)C12H22O11 + H2O
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + H₂O     →    C₅H₁₂O₆ + C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ + H₂O     →    C₅H₁₂O₆ + C₆H₁₂O₆

Source of sucrose:

Sucrose is present in roots of plants and also in fruits. It is storage form of energy. Some insects and bacteria use sucrose as main food. Best example is honeybee which collect sucrose and convert it into honey.

Monomers of sucrose and hydrolysis:

Sucrose consist of monomers glucose and fructose which are join together through glycosidic bond. Hydrolysis break the sucrose molecule into glucose and fructose. In hydrolysis glycosidic bond is break which convert the sucrose into glucose and fructose. Hydrolysis is slow process but this reaction is catalyze by enzyme. The enzyme invertase catalyze this reaction.

The given reaction also completely follow the law of conservation of mass. There are equal number of atoms of elements on both side of chemical equation thus mass remain conserved.
