of and of react as far as possible according to (, , ). Choose the correct statement(s).

  1. A is present in excess over the amount needed.
  2. B of is formed.
  3. C of remains.
  4. D of is formed.

Answer: A, B

= 1 mol, = 1.5 mol; needs 1.25 mol , so limits. Excess = (1.5-1.25)/1.25 = 20% (A true). = 1 mol = 30 g (B true). left = 0.25 mol = 8 g, not 5.6 g (C false). = 1.5 mol = 27 g, not 36 g (D false).
