@Somy  could you try explaining this one? I think it's pretty similar

somy · Answer

yes its same way 
again limiting reactant is the one that has smaller mole
and amount of product depends on amount of limiting reagent

somy · Answer

so do same type of calculation

somy · Answer

btw that last question was not finished 
u need to find mole of Al2O3 also

anonymous · Answer

I know I figured that one out.

anonymous · Answer

so cl2 is limiting because it's only 1.1 moles. Can you help me with the calculations again?

somy · Answer

use same formula 
mole of Cl2 / coefficient of C2 = mole of NaCl/ coefficient of NaCl

anonymous · Answer

so that means 2.2 moles of NaCl

got it! Thank you!
