What are Limiting Reactants?

Limiting reactant(s) as the name implies are reactants whose availability is limited and hence, the the rate at which products are formed is limited subsequently.

From the question, to determine the limiting Reactant;

  • We must divide the available quantity of each Reactant by the required quantity for the production of one unit cheeseburgers.

Hence;

  • 12 buns/1 = 12 cheeseburgers.

  • 20 patties/2 = 10 cheeseburgers

  • 24 slices of cheese/2 = 12 cheeseburgers

  • 20 strips of bacon/4 = 5 cheeseburgers.

On this note, the limiting Reactant is strips of bacon and hence, the number bacon double cheeseburgers that can be made starting with the given ingredients is; five.
