Consider the reaction of propane described in the passage. During a testing procedure, a chemist at the manufacturing company combined 1.50 g of propane (CH8) with 3.25 g of oxygen gas (Oz) in a closed container and measured the production of 2.28 g of carbon dioxide (CO2). C,Hs + 502 — 3C02 + 4H20
Identity the limiting reactant in the reaction, and explain how the limiting reactant is determined.
