Can you determine the limiting reactant just by comparing the masses of the reactants?
4 answers
only if you know the molar mass of each and the balanced equation so you can see how many moles and therefore grams of A are needed to react with B. So in general, No
Determine the limiting reactant.
4Cr(s)+3O2(g)→2Cr2O3(s)
4Cr(s)+3O2(g)→2Cr2O3(s)
Can you determine the limiting reactant just by comparing the masses of the reactants? Explain your reasoning.
I got the same question ^^^^
