Limiting Reactant
• There are 36 un-iced cupcakes.• Each cupcake gets 2 tablespoons of icing.• You have 3 tubs of icing, and each tub of icing
contains about 26 tablespoons.
What is the limiting reactant?

Limiting Reactant Cont.
39 cupcakes can be iced with the available icing, but we only have 36 cupcakes. Therefore, the
limiting reactant is the cupcakes.

Percent Yield
• Each cupcake recipe theoretically makes 48 cupcakes.
• However, when we made the cupcakes, we only got 36.
