Question

If 4. 00 g of NaCl react with 10. 00 g of AgNO3, what is the excess reactant? AgCl NaCl AgNO3 NaNO3.

Answer 1

We need balnce equation first

$\\ \tt\bull\rightarrowtail NaCl+AgNO_3\longrightarrow AgCl+NaNO_3$

• It's already balanced.

• Here Silver Nitrate is more
• So AgNO_3 is the excess reagent.

Note:-

Excess reagent is always present in reactant side
