Identify the limiting reactant when 32. 0 g hydrogen is allowed to react with 16. 0 g oxygen

Sagot :

Answer:

Oxygen is limiting reactant

Explanation:

2 H2  +   O2  ======> 2 H2 O

from this equation (and periodic table) you can see that

  4 gm of H combine with 32 gm O2  

     H / O  =  4/32 = 1/8

       32 /16    =  2/1    shows O is limiter

         for 32 gm H you will need 256 gm O   and you only have 16 gm
