Question #7fac9
1 Answer
Chlorine gas will be the limiting reagent.
Explanation:
Start by writing the balance d chemical equation for this reaction, which is actually called the chlorination of carbon disulfide
Notice that you have a
Automatically, chlorine gas will act as a limiting reagent, since you start with 0.235 moles instead of
Therefore, the formula of the limiting reagent is
To get the maximum amount of carbon tetrachloride that can be produced by this reaction, use the fact that you ahve a
This means that the reaction will produce the same number of moles of
Since chlorine gas is the limiting reagent, it will determine how many moles of
The reaction will produce 0.0783 moles of
