in a reaction A + B2 gives AB2 , identify the limiting reagent if 300 atoms of A reacts with 200 molecules of B2.
A + B2 --------> AB2
1 atom + 1molecule ------> 1 molecule i.e. they react in 1:1 ratio
Though there are 300 atoms of A, there are only 200 moleucles of B2 hence B2 is the limiting reagent.
