    Finding limiting reagent in NaOH and H2SO4, and benzene and bromine reactions

    Homework Statement Question 1 How would your solve this? I balanced it now i am stuck. Same with the second problem. 2 NaOH + H2SO4 = Na2SO4 + 2 H2O If 14.56 g of NaOH was reacted with 13.49 g of H2SO4, how many grams of water would be produced. (Hint What is the limiting reagent?) Question 2...

    Finding the limit of a rational function as x approaches -1

    well, i used the method of substitution and if my algebra is correct i came out with -6/7 but in my solutions manual that answer is incorrect, then i try to factor the top but it didn't seem to factor out. although, i haven't took college algebra in awhile, so i am a little rusty on my factoring.

    Undergrad Main Limit Theorem: Learn Limits in Words

    My teacher told me it was best to learn in words. can anyone help me with the correct why to write these. Let n be positive interger, K be a constant, and f and g be function that have limits at C. then 1. lim k = k x-> c 2. lim x= c x-> c 3. lim kf(x) = k lim f(x) x-> c...
