Question

Which is the limiting reactant when 3.00 mol of copper are reacted with 3.00 mol of silver nitrate in the following equation?Cu + 2 AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Aga. Agb. Cuc. AgNO3d. Cu(NO3)2

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given the following reaction

Cu + 2AgNO3 -----------> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag

3.0 moles of copper will give 1 mole of Cu(NO3)2
