Limiting Reactions Question #11

Part a.

For the following reaction, 0.289 moles of hydrochloricacid are mixed with 0.562 moles of oxygengas.

Hydrochloric acid (aq) + oxygen (g) = water (l) + chlorine(g)

What is the FORMULA for the limiting reagent  ________________ and what is the maximum amount of water that canbe produces? _____________moles

Part b.

For the following reaction, 9.80 grams of butane(C4H10) are allowed to react with 19.0grams of oxygen gas.

Butane (C4H10)(g) + oxygen (g) = carbon dioxide (g) + water

What is the maximum amount of carbon dioxide that can be formed?______________grams

What is the FORMULA for the limiting reagent ______________ andwhat amount of excess reagent remains after the reaction iscomplete? _______________grams
