Question

Based on the diagram below, how much of the excess reactant is left over? *

2 slices of bread and 3 pieces of lunchmeat
2 slices of bread and 2 slices of cheese
2 of lunchmeat and 3 slices of cheese
3 of lunchmeat and 2 slices of cheese

Answer 1

3 pieces of lunch-meat and 2 slices of cheese

Step-by-step explanation:

You have enough bread to make 3 sandwiches

You have enough lunch-meat to make 4 sandwiches

You have enough cheese to make 5 sandwiches

In all you have enough material to make 3 sandwiches

so if you subtract three from each number above you will have no bread, enough lunch-meat to make one sandwich and enough cheese to make two sandwiches

luch-meat for one sandwich is: 3 pieces

Cheese for two sandwiches is: 2 pieces
