Respuesta :
"H₂" would be the limiting reagent in the reaction.
The reaction is:
- [tex]3 H_2(g) + N_2 (g) \rightarrow 2 NH_3 (g)[/tex]
To get the limiting reagent, start dividing the provided equivalents by their stoichiometric coefficients, whichever molecule with the lowest value seems to be the limiting reagent for something like the chemical reaction.
For H₂,
= [tex]\frac{Initial \ moles}{Coefficient}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
= [tex]1.67[/tex]
For N₂,
= [tex]\frac{Initial \ moles}{Coefficient}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2}{1}[/tex]
= [tex]2[/tex]
We can see that, [tex]\frac{Initial \ moles}{Coefficient}[/tex] for H₂ is least than N₂.
Thus the above approach is correct.
