The limiting reactant in a reaction a. is the reactant for which there is the least amount in grams b. is the reactant which has
the lowest coefficient in a balanced equation c. is the reactant for which there is the most amount in grams d. is the reactant for which there is the fewest number of moles e. none of the above
The limiting reactant in the reaction is the one which has
the lowest ratio of moles available
over coefficient in the balanced equation
This is because the actual mass or number of moles of the
reactant does not directly dictate if it is a limiting reactant, this must be
relative to the other reactants.
The nuclei of most atoms also contain neutrons . The masses of subatomic particles are very tiny. ... Since the nucleus contains protons and neutrons, most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus. Protons and electrons have electrical charges that are equal and opposite.
