3 Gms of activated charcoal was added to 50 ml of acetic acid (0.06N) in a flask. After an hour it was filtered and strength of the filterate was found to be 0.042N. The amount of acetic acid adsorbed will be

As we learnt in

Concept of limiting reagent and excess reagent -

The reactant which gets consumed and thus limits the amount of product formed is called the limiting reagent.

- wherein

 CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (g) ;

In this reaction, if 1 mole of methane and 1 mole of oxygen are taken then oxygen would be limiting reagent.
