The limiting reactant is chlorine (Cl2).

<u>Explanation</u>:

Limiting reactant is the amount of product formed which gets limited by the reagent without continuing it.

        2 Al + 3 Cl2 ==> 2 AlCl3  represents the balanced equation.

Number of moles Al present = 34 g Al x 1 mole Al / 26.98 g

                                                = 1.260 g moles of Al

Number of moles Cl2 present = 39 g Cl2 x 1 mole Cl2 / 35.45 g

                                                  = 1.10 g moles of Cl2

Dividing each reactant by it's coefficient in the balanced equation obtains:

1.260 moles Al / 2 = 0.63 g moles of Al

1.11 moles Cl2 / 3 = 0.36 g moles of Cl2

The reactant which produces a lesser amount of product is called as limiting reactant.

Here the Limiting reactant is Cl2.

The combustion of alkanes, alkenes and alkynes produces:
algol [13]
Alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes are compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen. When these compounds undergo complete combustion, the products are carbon dioxide and water. Otherwise, when incomplete combustion occurs, carbon dioxide, water, and carbon monoxide are produced. Note that carbon monoxide is a toxic gas that is harmful to people's health.
