Freesciencelessons・2 minutes read
The limiting reactant in a chemical reaction determines the amount of product that will be produced, while the excess reactant remains unused. Calculating the mass of the product involves multiplying the number of moles by the relative formula mass.
Insights
- The limiting reactant in a chemical reaction is crucial as it determines the amount of product that will be formed, while the excess reactant remains unreacted.
- To calculate the mass of the product in a reaction, one needs to consider the number of moles and the relative formula mass, with the limiting reactant playing a significant role in this calculation.
