Why is the theoretical yield of a reaction determined only by the amount of the limiting reactant?

The theoretical yield of a reaction is determined by the limiting reactant because this reactant is completely consumed in the reaction, and the amount of product that can be formed is limited by the amount of the limiting reactant available. Any excess of the other reactant does not contribute to the formation of additional product beyond what is possible with the limiting reactant.


Which reactant in the reaction of sodium carbonate and calcium chloride dihydrate is the limiting reactant if 1.00 gram of each reagent is used?

To determine the limiting reactant, calculate the moles of each reactant using their molar masses. Then, use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine which reactant will be consumed first. Whichever reactant produces the lesser amount of product will be the limiting reactant.


What is the difference between a limiting reactant and an excess reactant?

the limiting reactant is how much of a compound or solution you need to make an experiment possible. the excess reactant is the amount left over from the other compound or solution used (the other reactant that is used)
