CO2 is the emperical formula of carbon dioxide
Answer:
NH3
Explanation:
2NH3(aq)+CO2(aq)→CH4N2O(aq)+H2O(l)
So for two moles of NH3 we need one mole of CO2. So let's count moles for each reagent.
n(NH3)=m(NH3)/M(NH3)=135700/17,03=7968.29 mol
n(CO2)=m(CO2)/M(CO2)=211400/44.01=4803.45 mol
From equation we have to divide n(NH3) by 2 because we need two equivalent per one CO2. That will be 3984.145. So the limiting agent is NH3 because it's not enough of it to react with all CO2
