The limiting reactant is NH3

What is a limiting reagent?

The limiting reagent is the reactant that is completely used up in a reaction and thus determines when the reaction stops. From the reaction stoichiometry, the exact amount of reactant needed to react with another element can be calculated.

2NH3 + MgSO4 + 2H20-→ Mg(OH)2 + (NH4)2SO4

For limiting reagent:-

 MgSO4= moles / stoichiometry coefficient

                ⇒ 4.6/1

NH3 =  moles / stoichiometry coefficient

           ⇒ 5.4/2

             ⇒ 2.7

HENCE, the limiting reagent is - NH3.
