Given:
Ammonia
Hydrochloric acid
To find:
The amount excess of reactant left over in ammonia.
Solution:
Ammonia reacts rapidly with hydrochloric acid to form Ammonium Chloride
Equation for the above statement is derived as:
One gram per mole of ammonia
Similarly for 6.91g of
One gram per mole of hydrochloric acid
Similarly for 4.61g of
From the above information we can say that h c l is a limiting reactant.
Limiting reactant is an element that consumes lesser product in a chemical reaction.
Thus the amount of excess reactant is calculated by using the following formula
Amount of excess reactant left over in
Result:
Amount of excess reactant left over ammonia
