The limiting reactant is used up in and stops a chemical reaction.
Explicación
## Step 1In a chemical reaction, the reactants are the substances that undergo a chemical change to form a product. The reactants are consumed during the reaction.## Step 2The reactant that is completely consumed in a chemical reaction is known as the limiting reactant. This is because the amount of product formed in a chemical reaction is determined by the amount of the limiting reactant.## Step 3Once the limiting reactant is completely consumed, the reaction stops. This is because there is no more of this reactant to continue the reaction.
