Limiting Reactants Practice

1. ___NO + ___O2  ___NO2

a) What is the limiting reactant if 0.866 mol of NO is mixed with 0.503 mol of O2 to create NO2?

b) Calculate the number of moles of NO2 produced. (Answer should already be solved from
the previous questions)

2. ___O3 + ___NO  ___O2 + ___NO2

a) If 7.40 g of O3 reacts with 0.670 g of NO, which compound will be the limiting reactant?

b) How many grams of NO2 will be produced? (Answer should already be solved from the
previous questions)

c) Calculate mass, in grams, of the excess reactant remaining at the end of the reaction.
How many moles of excess reactant would this be?
3. ___MnO2 + ___HCl  ___MnCl2 + ___Cl2 + ___H2O

a) If 0.86 mol of MnO2 and 48.2 g of HCl react, which reactant will be used up first?

b) What volume of Cl2 will be produced? (Answer should already be solved from the previous
questions)

4. ___Al2S3 + ____H2O  ____Al(OH)3 + ___H2S

a) If 15.00 g of aluminum sulfide and 10.00 g of water react, what is the limiting reactant?

b) What is the maximum mass of dihydrogen monosulfide that can form? (Answer should
already be solved from the previous questions)

c) How much excess reactant, in moles, remains after the reaction is complete?
