Concept introduction: The reagent in reaction that controls the amount of product formed is termed as limiting reagent. After completion of
Answer to Problem 68A
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The balanced reaction is:
The mass of
The molar mass of
So,
In the given balanced reaction, 2.0 mol of
Since, the required moles of
The mass of leftover reactant is calculated as:
In the given balanced reaction, 2.0 mol of
Thus, the leftover mole of C is:
Since, the molar mass of C is 12.011 g/mol so:
Hence, the mass of left-over reactant is
