    Consider the following generic chemical equation.
    What is the limiting reactant when 3 moles of A and 4 moles of B are allowed to react? 2A 2B-3C

    Is that your equation? :confused:

    If so, then you know that you need 2 moles of A and two moles of B for complete reaction with no leftovers.

    That means, that the amount of A and B should be equal. But in your given, one is more than the other. The lesser one is the limiting reagent. What is it?

    Consider the following reaction:

    A + 2B =====> C

    If you have 5 mols of B react with an excess of A, what is the maximum number of moles of C that you can produce?
