5. The purpose of this experiment is to identify the limiting reagent for the following reaction:The purpose of this experiment is to identify the limiting reagent for the following reaction: NiCl 2 6H 2 O (aq) + 3H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 NH 2(aq) [Ni(H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 ) 3 ]Cl 2(s) + 6H 2 O (l) How will you do this?How will you do this? Simply compare your experimental mole ratio of H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 / NiCl 2 6H 2 O with the theoretical mole ratio of 3/1 for this reaction. If it is less than 3/1 then is the limiting reagent. If it is greater than 3/1 then is the liming reagent.Simply compare your experimental mole ratio of H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 / NiCl 2 6H 2 O with the theoretical mole ratio of 3/1 for this reaction. If it is less than 3/1 then is the limiting reagent. If it is greater than 3/1 then is the liming reagent. Once the limiting reagent is known, you can calculate the theoretical yield of product ([Ni(H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 ) 3 ]Cl 2 ) and the percent yield of product.Once the limiting reagent is known, you can calculate the theoretical yield of product ([Ni(H 2 NCH 2 CH 2 NH 2 ) 3 ]Cl 2 ) and the percent yield of product.
