Equal weight of X (atomic weight = 36) and Y(atomic weight = 24) are reacted to form compound `X_(3)Y_(5)`, which of the following is/are correct?

Options

A. X is the limiting reactant
B. Y is the limiting reagent
C. No reactant is left over
D. Mass of `X_(3)Y_(5)` formed is 1.9 times the mass of X taken

Answer

B, D

Explanation

`{:(,3X,+,5YrarrX_(3)Y_(5),,),("Mass","ag",,"ag",,),("Mole",(a)/(36),,(a)/(24),,),("Mole",(a)/(36)xx(1)/(3),,(a)/(24)xx(1)/(5),"Y is the limiting reagent",):}`
`therefore " Mass of "X_(3)Y_(5)=(1)/(5)xx((a)/(24))(36xx3+5xx24)=1.9a`
