Limiting Reactant A.K.A. Stoichiometry
2
One reactant remains while the other is consumed in a reaction Mole ratio will help determine the limiting reaction Need to create a conversion pathway How do we determine which reactant limits the product?
3
How Do Hot Fudge Sundaes and Limiting Reactants Relate?
4
How Many Sundaes Can You Make?
5
Two! The chocolate syrup limits the recipe!
6
Which reactant remains when 6.70 mole Na reacts with 3.2o moles of Cl 2 2 Na + Cl 2 2 NaCl Which reactant is the limiting reactant? Step 1 Moles of reactant Moles of product
7
Moles of NaMole RatioMoles of NaCl 6.70 moles of Na2 mol NaCl= 6.70 mol NaCl 2 mol Na 2 Na + Cl 2 2 NaCl Moles of Cl 2 Mole RatioMoles of Product 3.20 moles of Cl 2 2 mol NaCl= 6.40 mol NaCl 1 mol Cl 2 Step 1 Cl 2 is the Limiting Reactant!

Which reactant is the limiting reactant when 3.5 g Cu reacts with 6.0 g AgNO 3? Cu + AgNO 3 Cu(NO 3 ) 2 + Ag; balanced? Cu + 2 AgNO 3 Cu(NO 3 ) 2 + 2 Ag Limiting Reactant and Mass-Mass Conversions
10
We have 3.5 g Cu and 6.0 g AgNO 3 Create a Conversion Pathway Cu + 2 AgNO 3 Cu(NO 3 ) 2 + 2 Ag Step 1 Mass of Reactant Moles of Reactant Step 2 Moles of Product Step 3 Mass of Product
