Answer:
limiting reactant
Explanation:
<em>The term that will be used to describe zinc in this case is </em><em>limiting reactant.</em>
A limiting reactant is a reactant that determines the amount of product formed in a chemical reaction. They are often stoichiometrically smaller of all the reactants in a reaction and once they are used up during, the reaction stops.
In this case, the zinc metal in the reaction is completely consumed, making the hydrochloric acid to be in excess. The zinc thus determines the amount of the products formed,
Answer:
The CO2 Extinguisher Cannisters contain carbon dioxide in liquid form, and when the extinguisher is let off the liquid is released into the air neutralising the oxygen that the fire is feeding on, disabling the fires ability to spread.
