Which of the following is NOT true about limiting and excess reagents?
a.)The amount of product obtained is determined by the limiting reagent.
b.)Some of the excess reagent is left over after the reaction is complete.
c.)A balanced equation is necessary to determine which reactant is the limiting reagent.
d.)The reactant that has the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent
I know that A is true and that B is true for sure. I am not sure about C. To me it seems that I always balance an equation, but maybe that is unneccesary work. My guess though is that because of molar mass, D is not true.
Am i correct?
