question
Find Limiting Reagent
answer
1. amount of an element in the equation
2. multiply x 1 mol of the same element/mass of that element
ex) CuSO4 - Cu = 63

159 g
3. multiply by coefficient of the other element/coefficient of original element
4. multiply by mass of the other element/1 mol of the other element
5. multiply all top factors and then divide by bottom
6. find result - more than original amount? not the limiting reagent. less than original amount? it IS the limiting reagent.
