Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Among the given reactions, 
and 
are the limiting reagents for the (i), (ii) and (iii) equation respectively.
Equation (i) 
According to balanced equation, 1 mole of 
require
3 moles of 
.
So, 
will be a limiting reagent. Similarly, for reaction (ii) and (iii) 
and 
are limiting reagent respectively.
