Limiting Reactants

The document describes a chemical reaction between NO and O2 where 3 moles of NO react with 2 moles of O2. The limiting reactant that will determine the amount of product formed is the O2, since it is present in a smaller amount than the NO. The amount of product NO2 that can be formed cannot exceed the amount of the limiting reactant, which is 2 moles of O2. Therefore, the correct answer is B, 2 moles of NO2.
