When 12 moles of O₂ reacts with 1.1 mole of C₁₀H₈ what is the limiting reactant if we look at how much H₂O if formed?

C₁₀H₈ + 12 O₂ --> 10 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

• Oxygen

• C₁₀H₈

• Water

• Carbon Dioxide

What is the limiting reactant if 10 moles of NH₃ react with 30.0 moles of NO if we look at how much H₂O is formed?

4NH₃+6NO --> 5N₂ + 6H₂O

• NH₃

• N₂

• water

The limiting reactant

• slows the reaction down
• is used up first
• is the reactant that is left over
• controls the speed of the reaction
