How to Find the Limiting Reactant (My Shortcut)
1. Get balanced chemical equation
2. Convert all amounts to MOLES
3. Divide each number of moles by coefficient from balanced equation
4. Whichever of those results is SMALLEST corresponds to LIMITING.

Thank you bro
is there any way to check if your limiting reactant is correct? :)
You are amazing
Life. Saver.
Why do I divide by the coefficients

coefficients represent mole
What does that value of Limiting reactant (0.1007) indicate, though? Like it must be related somehow? I can't understand, I've been thinking about it for too long

i don't think it has any significance. it's just to find the LR.

@@DVNQSTY i actually was able to find it's meaning. I can't remember properly but it signified the proportional value or something. Logically thinking, every number in science should have a certain significance or meaning, since the numbers come from somewhere

how did he get 75g and 20 L? are we always dividing by these numbers?

those are just random values given in the question
I wish you wouldn't write 7s as 1s.

Hmm. I’m not very confident I can change my handwriting at this age… fair point though

@@chemistNATEit’s not very noticeable for most, I read it perfectly fine as a 7, but recently for my handwriting I’ve just added a little - through the 7 to differentiate it from a 1. Now to the 1 I add a line at the base
