The determines the quantity that can be produced by the reaction.
a) ideal reactant
b) excess reactant
c) limiting reactant
d) stoichiometric reactant

Question:

The determines the quantity that can be produced by the reaction.

Options:

A)ideal reactant  

B)excess reactant  

C)limiting reactant  

D)stoichiometric reactant

C)limiting reactant

Answer : The correct option is, (C) limiting reactant

Explanation :

Excess reagent : It is defined as the reactants not completely used up in the reaction.

Limiting reagent : It is defined as the reactants completely used up in the reaction.

Theoretical yield : It is calculated from the amount of the limiting reagent present in the reaction.

Actual yield : It is experimentally determined.

From this we conclude that the limiting reactant determines the quantity that can be produced by the reaction.

Hence, the correct option is, (C) limiting reactant
