Limiting Reactants
Limiting Reactants
• Reactant that is completely used up in a chemical reaction
• Determines the maximum amount of product that can be formed.
Limiting Reactants
• Why is this important?– The quantities of products formed in a reaction
are always determined by the quantity of the limiting reactant.
Limiting Reactants• Analogy: making cheese sandwiches

2H2 + O2 2H2O
What is the limiting reactant?

2H2 + O2 2H2O
What is the limiting reactant?
Limiting Reactants• How many grams of water can I make from 22
grams of hydrogen and 195 grams of oxygen?– Write a balanced chemical equation
H2 + O2 H2O
– What is the limiting reactant?• Answer: Do two stoichiometry calculations
– Determine mass of product produced by each reactant
– How do you know?
Determining the limiting reactants• The limiting reagent may not be obvious!!
Practice Problem• If 11.3 grams of sodium chloride are formed in the
reaction described above, what is the percent yield of this reaction?
Can you really get out everything that goes in?
% yield = experimental yield x 100theoretical yield
Experimental or actual yield determined in the lab
Theoretical or expected yield determined by stoichiometry
Practice Problem• If 35 grams of C6H10 reacts with 45 grams of
oxygen, how many grams of carbon dioxide will be formed?– What is the limiting reactant?– How much of the excess reactant is left over after
the reaction ?– If 35 grams of carbon dioxide are actually formed
from the reaction, what is the percent yield of this reaction?
