For the following reaction, 63.6 grams of barium hydroxide are allowed to react with 34.1 grams of sulfuric acid . barium hydroxide(aq) + sulfuric acid(aq) -> water(l) + barium sulfate(s)

What is the maximum amount of barium sulfate that can be formed?

What is the FORMULA for the limiting reagent?

What amount of the excess reagent remains after the reaction is complete?

your answer would be a. 12.5 kg

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
