Determine the limiting reactant


Determine the limiting reactant, excess reactant, mass of the product, and the mass of the excess reactant.

The reaction between solid sodium and Iron (III) oxide is one in a series of reactions that inflates an automobile airbag.

6Na(s) + Fe2O3 (s) → 3 Na2O (s) + 2 Fe(s)
If 100.0 g Na and 100.0 g Fe2O3 are used in this reaction, determine:

1. limiting reactant

2. reactant in excess

3. mass of solid iron produced

4. mass of the excess reactant that remains after the reaction is complete
