Materials You Need Note Sheet Periodic Table Calculator
Limiting Reagent The reagent that determines the amount of product that can be formed by a reaction. The reaction occurs only until the limiting reagent is used up.
The reactant that is not completely used up in the reaction. Excess Reagents The reactant that is not completely used up in the reaction.
