Limiting Reactant Help!?
Zinc metal oxidizes in air according to the reaction below:
2 Zn(s) + O2(g) → 2 ZnO(s)
If 35.8 grams of Zn is reacted with 12.9 grams of O2, which reactant is limiting?
Choose one:
A. Zinc
How many grams of ZnO are produced?
g ZnO
How many grams of excess reactant remain after the reaction?
g excess reactant

Molar mass of Zn = 65.4 g/mol
Molar mass of O₂ = 16.0×2 g/mol = 32.0 g/mol
Molar mass of ZnO = (65.4 + 16.0) g/mol = 81.4 g/mol
Initial moles of Zn = (35.8 g) × (1 mol / 65.4 g) = 0.5474 mol
Initial moles of O₂ = (12.9 g) × (1 mol / 32.0 g) = 0.4031 mol
2 Zn(s) + O₂(g) → 2 ZnO(s)
Mole ratio Zn : O₂ = 2 : 1
If Zn is completely reacted,
O₂ needed = (0.5474 mol) × (1/2) = 0.2737 mol < 0.4031
Hence, O₂ is in excess.
The limiting reactant is Zn.
The answer: A. Zn
====
According to the above equation, mole ratio Zn : ZnO = 2 : 2
Moles of ZnO produced = (0.5474 mol) × (2/2) = 0.5474 mol
Mass of ZnO produced = (0.5474 mol) × (81.4 g/mol) = 44.6 g
====
Mass of O₂ remains after the reaction
= (Total initial mass of the reactants) - (Mass of ZnO produced)
= [(35.8 + 12.9) - 44.6] g
= 4.1 g
OR:
According to the above calculation:
Moles of O₂ reacted = 0.2737 mol
Mass of O₂ reacted = (0.2737 mol) × (32.0 g/mol) = 8.8 g
Mass of O₂ remains after the reaction = (12.9 - 8.8) g = 4.1 g
