In this video, you'll learn how to find the limiting reactant or limiting reagent.

Although there are many ways to do this, I'll show you the quickest and easiest way to find limiting reactant.

Before you start, you should write a balanced chemical equation. Next, convert all the reactants into moles if they aren't already in moles. Then divide the moles of the reactants by its respective coefficient. Lastly, the reactant with the smaller number is the limiting reactant.

And that's it. Quick and easy way to find limiting reactant.

By the end of this video, you'll know exactly how to determine limiting reactant.
