Determining Limiting Reactants

Students use a Pressure Sensor to experimentally determine the limiting and excess reactant when the amount of one reactant is varied and analyze data to reveal the coefficients in the balanced reaction.

Supports NGSS Performance Expectation HS-PS1-7: Use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction.
