The objective of this lab was to identify the limiting reactant, which the lab's data showed the limiting reactant to be Beaker A. According to the Limiting Reactant Document, it states "limiting reactants control the amount of product possible for a process because once the limiting reactant has been consumed, no further reaction can occur"(2nd paragraph). The mole of Beaker A was .00500 of CuCl2 as Beaker B's was .0056 mol of CuCl2. During the lab, Beaker A's solution had a larger amount of aluminum foil pieces than Beaker B's solution; showing that the limiting reaction has to have a smaller volume. In the Limiting Reactant Document, based on their second experiment, " Substance A and B react in a 1:1 ration, and with only 0.5 mol of Substance
