Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The limiting reagent is determined by comparing the mole ratio of the reactants to their coefficients in the balanced chemical equation. Without knowing the specific reactants and products (due to the placeholder text), we can still deduce that if 10.0 g of each reactant are used, the one with the larger molar mass will have fewer moles, and thus, is more likely to be the limiting reagent. However, since the question specifically asks between NO and an unidentified reactant, and without specific molar masses or a clear chemical equation, we can't accurately calculate the limiting reagent. The answer provided as "A" is based on the assumption that we would normally calculate the moles of each reactant and compare them to the stoichiometry of the reaction to find the limiting reagent. Given the error in the question's presentation, a precise calculation cannot be made, indicating a misunderstanding in the interpretation based on the provided information.
