Step 1
1 of 2Take note that a limiting reactant, also known as a limiting reagent, is a reactant in a chemical reaction that controls how much product is produced. The limiting reactant is the one that gave the smallest quantity of product since it is the one that will be fully used.
Therefore, based on the previous problem, the limiting reactant is the phosphoric acid (HPO).
