MCQ

Problem:

For the reaction A and 2 B yields C, 10 moles of A and 16 moles of B will produce
(a) 5 moles C
(b) 4 moles C
(c) 13 moles C
(d) 8 moles C


Solution:

In reaction, 1 mole of A reacts with 2 moles of B.
So, 10 moles of A will react with 20 moles of B.
But 16 moles of B is available.
This means that B is limiting reagent.
2 moles of B produce 1 mole of C.
So, 16 moles of B will produce 8 moles of C
Correct option is (d).
