(Solved): According to the following unbalanced equation: NO(g) + H2 ...


According to the following unbalanced equation:
NO(g) + H2(g) → N2(g) + H2O(g)

2.00 L of NO(g) at 1.00 atm and 25°C is reacted with 1.00 L of H2(g) at 2.00 atm and 25°C.

Which, if either, is the limiting reactant? you must show your calculations to prove which, if either, is the limiting reactant.

To determine the limiting reactant, we need to compare the moles of each reactant and determine which one is present in the lowest amount. The reactant that is present in the lower quantity will be the limiting reactant because it will be completely consumed in the reaction, while the excess reactant will be left over.

First, we need to convert the given volumes of gases to moles using the ideal gas law:
