CO2 + 4H2 --> CH4 + 2H2O
0.500 moles CO2 (1 mole CH4/1 mole CO2) = 0.500 moles CH4
0.500 moles CO2 (2 moles H2O/1 mole CO2) = 1.00 moles H2O
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------add
= 1.50 moles total product

In a chemical reaction the limiting reactant is the reactant that there is the least of in the reaction; it determines the amount of product formed. In a chemical reaction it is the reactant that gets completely "used up"
Limiting reactants are the reactants that are used up first. And once they are used up, they stop, or limit, the reaction. So the amount of product that can be produced depends on the limiting reactant. The other reactant, the one in excess, would predict a larger amount of product. But once we produce the amount of product predicted by the limiting reactant. The limiting reactant is used up and the reaction stops.
The Limiting Reactant is the reactant that runs out first in a reaction.
In many chemical reactions, there are two reactants. In nearly every case, one of those two reactants "runs out" first, and at that point, the chemical reaction stops, because in order for it to happen, both reactants must be present to react with each other. As soon as the one reactant runs out, the reaction is over, and you have product(s) and one left over reactant. The reactant that runs out first is the limiting reactant. The leftovers are the excess reactant.

The limiting reactant is that reactant in a chemical reaction that will be used up first. Put another way, it is the reactant that is in the smallest supply. The way it controls the amount of product formed is that once it is used up, no more product can be formed, so the amount of product formed ultimately depends on the amount of the limiting reactant.

Perhaps you are referring to a first order reaction.

The first reactant and last product are the same.
