Determine the limiting reagent and the excess reagent for the following balanced chemical reaction in which 12.73 g of Fe is heated and placed in a bottle (closed system) containing 11.78 moles of oxygen gas.
Mwt. 55.85g/mole Mwt. 48.00 g/mole 159.70 55.85 g/mole
4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ..... Fe2O3(s)
b - Use the limiting reactant to determine the theoretical mass of iron (III) oxide that can be produced in this reaction?
c - Determine the excess reactant that is left over after complete reaction with all the limiting reactant.
The (s) (g) (s) are subscripts and so are the 2, 2, and 3 that I have in bold
Where the dots are....is an arrow pointing to the right.
