Identify limiting reactants (maximum product method). Consider the reaction of phosphorus with water and iodine. $2\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{s})+6{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}(\mathrm{I})+3{\mathrm{I}}_2(\mathrm{s})?6\mathrm{HI}(\mathrm{aq})+2{\mathrm{H}}_3{\mathrm{PO}}_3(\mathrm{aq})$ Determine the limiting reactant in a mixture containing $195\mathrm{g}$ of $\mathbf{P},307\mathrm{g}$ of ${\mathbf{H}}_2\mathbf{O}$, and $2.66\times 10^3\mathrm{g}$ of ${\mathbf{I}}_2$. Calculate the maximum mass (in grams) of hydroiodic acid, $\mathbf{HI}$, that can be produced in the reaction. The limiting reactant is: $\begin{array}{l}{\mathrm{I}}_2\\ {\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\\ \mathrm{P}\end{array}$ Amount of $\mathbf{HI}$ formed = g
