Sample Problem: Limiting Reagents (Reactants)

In this video we will solve the following problem

Propane undergoes a combustion reaction according the following balanced chemical equation,

C3H8 + 5O2 = 3CO2 + 4H2O

If 14.3 g of propane reacts with 40.2 g of oxygen gas,

 a. What is the limiting reactant?

 b. Which reactant is in excess?

 b. How many grams of water will be produced from this reaction?

 c. How many grams of excess reactant will be left over from this reaction?
