Limiting reactant is the reactant that stops the reaction when it is completely consumed. The product of the given reaction is Carbon dioxide.

Balanced Reaction:

A reaction in which the number of moles of atoms in reactants is equal to the number of moles of the atoms in the product.

The given reaction,

$\bold{5C + 6O_2 \rightarrow 5CO_2 \\\\}$

Carbon is a limiting reactant that reacts with 5 oxygen molecules. Oxygen is the excess reactant present in a large amount in the atmosphere. Hence only 5 molecules of Carbon dioxide will be produced.

Therefore, the product of the given reaction is Carbon dioxide.

Answer from: DarinKing2005

5C + 6O₂ → 5CO + 7/2 O₂

Explanation:

According to the question the reaction is between carbon and oxygen molecule . The reactant side was given as 5 moles of carbon reacting with 6 moles of oxygen molecules. The chemical reaction between carbon and excess oxygen will form carbon dioxide but with limited oxygen it will form carbon monoxide.

Now let us write and balance the actual chemical equation as required from the question. In limited oxygen the reaction will be

The reactant said 5 moles of carbon which is 5 atoms of carbon reacting with 12 atoms of oxygen. The number of atoms of element on both sides of the chemical equation need to be balance . The balanced equation when oxygen is limited is written as

5C + 6O₂ → 5CO + 7/2 O₂

The product will be 5 moles of carbon monoxide and 3.5 moles of oxygen molecules(7 atoms) since the oxygen is limited . The carbon monoxide later reacts with more oxygen to form carbon dioxide.
