Answer:

This question is incomplete but the completed question is below

What is used up in and stops a chemical reaction? (a) percent yield (b) limiting reactant (c) theoretical yield (d) excess reactant

The correct option is (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

A chemical reaction is a chemical combination,rearrangement or disintegration of chemical substance(s) (called reactants) to form new chemical substance(s) (called products).

A limiting reactant is the reactant that is totally used up during the course of a reaction. When this reactant is used up, it limits the amount of products formed and eventually stops the chemical reaction.
