Consider the following generic reaction:

Y + 2XY 2 2XY

In a limiting reactant problem, a certain quantity of each reactant is given and you are usually asked to calculate the mass of product formed. If 10.0 g of Y2 is reacted with 10.0 g of XY, outline two methods you could use to determine which reactant is limiting (runs out first) and thus determines the mass of product formed.
