Limiting Reactant Lab

Goal: Build products from bins of particles and see which reactant runs out first.

How to use

Pick the reaction 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O. Set the number of H₂ and O₂ particles. Run the reaction until you cannot build more. Record three runs. Then double both amounts. Does the limiting reactant change?
