2C2H2(l) +5O2(g)→ 4Co2(g) + 2H2O
The limiting reactant for reaction above is O2
<u><em>explanation</em></u>
The limiting reagent is determined using mole ratio of both reactant.
that is the mole ratio of C2H2:O2 which is 2:5 .
The mole ratio above implies that 37.0 mole of C2H2 needs 37.0 moles x5/2=92 moles of O2.
<em>Since the available moles of O2 was 81.0 mole and 92 moles are required to completely react with C2H2</em><em> ,</em> <u>O2 is the limiting reagent.</u>
