Mind helping me? (: I'll give extra points Consider the reaction 2CuCl2 + 4KI → 2CuI + 4KCl + I2. If 4 moles of CuCl2 react with 4 moles of KI, what is the limiting reactant?

CuCl2
KI
CuI
I2

the answer is a. co2, this would be colder than the : )

explanation:

where's the diagram?

2fe + 3h2so4 -> fe2(so4)3 + 3h2

it is necessary to balance equations in order to get the proper amount of reactants as well as products in order not to make a miscalculation.

you cannot change the subscripts as that would change the substance itself. for instance, diatomic elements such as h2 only have the subscript two when a gas. another example would be so4, if you were to change the subscript, the element would no longer be sulfate.

we change the coefficients instead as that only changes the number of molecules rather than the substance itself.

hope this !
