Limiting reagent

 

Calculated mass of excess reagent remaining in the mixture after reaction, g

 

Theoretical yield, g

 

% yield

 

I need help in my lab. The number of mols of cacl2 and na2co3 gives me the same number. If I need to calculate the limiting reagent, how would I be able to do that if they have the same number of mols.
