In most reactions there are two types of reactant. One of them is completely consumed and the other is only partially consumed. The reactant that is only partially consumed is the excess reactant.
A reagent present in a quantity that is more sufficient to react with a limiting reagent; any reactant that remains after the limiting reagent is used up in a chemical reaction.
an excess of the product
The actual yield is given within the worded problem. The theoretical yield however is to be found. In order to calculate the theoretical yield, you need to convert the mass of the limiting reagent (LR) to the mass of the reagent in excess (ER). To find the limiting reagent, you need to first convert the mass of the limiting reagent to the mass of the reagent in excess (to find the theoretical yield)A. Convert mass of limiting reagent to mass reagent in excess (mass --> mass); in other words, find the mass of the reagent consumed.1. Multiply the mass of the limiting reagent by the # molecules of the reagent in excess and its molar mass.2. Divide the above by the # of molecules LR which is multiplied by its molar mass.Mass LR x # molecules ER x molar mass ER-- # molecules LR x molar mass LR3. Subtract the original mass of reagent in excess and the consumed reagent in excess.Original mass Reagent in Excess - Consumed Reagent in Excess= Reagent leftover/unused (theoretical yield).B. Find the percent yield of the product.--- Actual YieldTheoretical Yield x 100%
The cheaper reagent is usually the reagent that is used in excess. This procedure is purely for economic reasons.

The limiting reagent is the determinant because you can only make as much as the smallest amount can provide to react with
Types of titrations 1. Direct titration: analyte + titrant → product 2. Blank titration: titration of a solution not containing the analyte (check for errors) If the endpoint is unclear, we can use a . . . Back titration a. Excess of standard solution is added to analyte (and they react) - Step 1 b. A second standard titrates the excess (unreacted) standard - Step 2 Step 1: analyte + reagent 1 → product + excess reagent 1 Step 2: excess reagent 1 + reagent 2 → product

When barium sulfate is made, the limiting reagent is the one that is completely consumed in the reaction and determines the amount of product formed. In this case, if barium ions (Ba2+) and sulfate ions (SO42−) are the reactants, the limiting reagent would be the one that is present in lower molar quantity. The one in excess would be the one that is present in higher molar quantity. Without the quantities of each ion provided, it is difficult to determine which is the limiting reagent and which is in excess.

To determine the amount of excess reagent in a chemical reaction, first calculate theoretical values for your reaction to get an estimation of how much of your excess reagent will be left once the limiting reagent is used. Then run the actual experiment and measure!
TiCl4 is limiting reagent, O2 is in excess
The Limiting Reactant is the smaller number once you compare the two reactants with one product. The product that you are comparing them both with must be the same. The Excess Reactant is the larger number, or the amount left over in the chemical reaction.

A back titration is a form of titraiton in which an excess of standard reagent is added and then the reverse of the titration is carried out.
