Nirvani the chemist needs to produce NO(g) for her employer. She decides to react ammonia gas with oxygen gas to produce nitrogen monoxide and water.
If Nirvani reacts 136.17 g of ammonia with 255.84 g of oxygen what is her limiting reactant and how many grams of the excess reactant are left after the reaction?
Note: You will need to write and balance the correct reaction equation to solve this problem.
A. ammonia, 63.96g B. oxygen, 27.24g C. ammonia, 31.98g D. oxygen, 17.02g E. both are li
