Match each term to its description. Match Term Definition Excess reactant A) Amount of product predicted to be produced by the given reactants Limiting reactant B) Reactant that can produce more of the product Theoretical yield C) Reactant that can produce a lesser amount of the product

Excess reactant - Reactant that can produce more of the product

Limiting reactant - Reactant that can produce a lesser amount of the product

Theoretical yield - Amount of product predicted to be produced by the given reactants

Explanation:

In every chemical reaction, there is a limiting reactant and there is an excess reactant.

The limiting reactant determines the amount of product obtained. It is the reactant that produces a lesser amount of the product.

The excess reactant is known to be the reactant that produces a greater amount of the product.

The theoretical yield is calculated using the limiting reactant and is the amount of product predicted to be produced by the given reactants.

Excess reactant - Reactant that can produce more of the product

Limiting reactant - Reactant that can produce a lesser amount of the product

Theoretical yield - Amount of product predicted to be produced by the given reactants

Explanation:

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!
