Is the same reactant always the limiting reactant?

5 answers

No, of course not. It depends upon how much of each reactant is present.
I mean in a given reaction, is it always the same?
Sorry to be confusing here, but in a certain reaction, even if the masses of the reactants are proportionately increased, does that change the limiting reactant?
The same reactant is not always the limiting reactant. the one that gets used up first is the limiting reactant.
