In one experiment, 12.0 g of PCl5 was slowly added to 15.0 g of H2O according to the following balanced chemical equation: Pcl5(s)+4H2O(l) ---> H3PO4 (aq) + 5HCl (g) The molar masses for each compounds in the equation are as follows; PCl5: 208.224 g/mol H2O: 18.015 g/mol H3PO4: 97.994 g/mol HCl; 36.45 g/mol What is the limiting reagent in this scenario?
In one experiment, 12.0 g of PCl5 was slowly added to 15.0 g of H2O according to the following balanced chemical equation:
Pcl5(s)+4H2O(l) ---> H3PO4 (aq) + 5HCl (g)
The molar masses for each compounds in the equation are as follows;
PCl5: 208.224 g/mol
H2O: 18.015 g/mol
H3PO4: 97.994 g/mol
HCl; 36.45 g/mol
What is the limiting reagent in this scenario?
Note! Make an accurate claim: The limiting reagent in this scenario is _____. Provide additional details and use subject specific language.
Cite evidence from what's given to you in the problem that supports your answer, hint: look at that equation!. Lastly! Fully connect the evidence to the claim/your answer to the question. Include subject specific language in your reasoning.
