SUMMARY

The discussion centers on determining the limiting reactant in the reaction between Lead II Nitrate and Potassium Chromate. The calculations yielded 0.084 grams for both reactants, leading to the conclusion that there is no limiting reactant in this scenario. Consequently, the theoretical yield of the reaction is also 0.084 grams, confirming that both reactants are present in stoichiometric amounts.

Hey, the question was to find the limiting reactant for Lead II Nitrate and Potassium Chromate.

I did the work and ended up with 0.084 g for both calculations. (sorry I am not sure how the proper jargon is in chem)

So the grams are the same...does that mean that there is not limiting reactant?
Also, the theoretical yield would be 0.084g then, right?

Unfortunately no one answered my question.

The answer is yes, there is no limiting reactant.
