4. The reaction of silver nitrate and potassium bromide yields silver bromide and potassium nitrate. If
45.0 mL of a 1.25 M AgNO3 solution is reacted with 75.0 mL of a 0.800 M KBr solution, what is the
limiting reagent, and how much AgBr is produced?
AgNO3 (aq) + KBr (aq) → AgBr (s) + KNO3 (aq)

PLEASE HELPP !!!

The limiting reagent is the reagent that is used up completely during a reaction. It can be identified by calculating which reactant produces the smallest amount of product. This can be done by determining the number of moles of each reagent (via molarity conversion). and then converting it to moles of the product (via mole-to-mole ratio).

AgNO₃ (aq) + KBr (aq) ---> AgBr (s) + KNO₃ (aq)

Molarity (M) = moles / liters

100 mL = 1 L

AgNO₃

45.0 mL / 100 = 45.0 L

1.25 M = ? moles / 0.450 L

? moles = 0.563 moles

KBr

75.0 mL / 100 = 0.750 L

0.800 M = ? moles / 0.750 L

? moles = 0.600 moles

In this case, there is no need to use the mole-to-mole ratio because all of the coefficients are one in the reaction (the amount of the limiting reagent used is the same amount of product produced). Since AgNO₃ produces the smaller amount of product, it is the limiting reagent.
