Limiting reagants problem
« on: November 15, 2009, 02:38:47 PM »
Based on the balanced equation

2H2S + 3O2 → 2SO2 + 2H2O
calculate the number of excess reagent units remaining when 170 H2S molecules and 282 O2 molecules react?

I've tried a few ways, none have worked. How do I go about solving this problem?
