Chapter 11.3, Problem 25SSC
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the reaction between two substances coming to an end is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The stoichiometric number is defined as the digit that is written in front of any molecule, atom or ion that is taking part in a chemical reaction.

Limiting reagent is the amount of substance that gets totally consumed in reaction.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 25SSC

The limiting reagent is responsible for a reaction between two substances coming to an end as former gets completely utilized in a reaction.

Explanation of Solution

The limiting reagent specifies the amount of product produced in a chemical reaction as it gets completely used in the reaction. The stoichiometric coefficient in front of reactants determines how much amount of reactant has taken part in chemical reaction. It helps in determining the limiting reagent in reaction and its amount in a chemical reaction. Therefore, it is the limiting reagent whose usage leads to a halt in the reaction.

Conclusion

The limiting reagent is responsible for a reaction between two substances coming to an end as former gets completely utilized in a reaction.
