In chemical reactions, materials react in certain fixed ratios. These ratios are
referred to as the stoichiometry of the reaction. The ratios are indicated in
chemical equations b the coefficients given for each substance. In a chemical
reaction, reactant which is present in the lesser amount gets consumed after
sometime and after that no further reaction takes place whatever be the
amount of the other reactant present. Hence, the reactant which gets
consumed, limits the amount of product formed and is, therefore, called the
limiting reagent.

32 Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: 4
Orbitals are region or space where there is maximum probability of finding
electrons. Qualitatively, these orbitals can be distinguished by their size,
shape and orientation. An orbital of small size means there is more chance of
finding the electron near the nucleus. Shape and orientation mean the
direction in which probability of finding electron is maximum. Atomic orbitals
can be distinguished by quantum numbers. Each orbital is designated by
three quantum numbers n, I and m1 (magnetic quantum number) which
define energy, shape and orientation but these are not sufficient to explain
spectra of multi-electrons atoms. Spin quantum number (ms ) determines the
spin of electron. Spin angular momentum of electron has two orientations
relative to chosen axis which are distinguished by spin quantum numbers
ms which can take values +1/2 and -1/2.
