"What mass of silicon carbide should result when 100.00g of silicon dioxide reacts with excess 100.00g of carbon?"
SiO2 + 3 C = 2 CO + SiC (balanced)
Direct question from homework; I was wondering if someone could explain how to find the solution with limiting reactants. A step-by-step would be helpful.

The problem states that the 100 g C is an excess; therefore, this is not a limiting reagent problem, assuming that statement is correct. Therefore, it's worked as a simple stoichiometry problem.
