1.


This problem is as hard as any limiting reagent stoichiometry problems we will do this term! You work in a sandwich shop. You MUST make sandwiches according to the following formula: You use two pieces of bread, 4 pieces of meat, 2 pieces of cheese, 3 pieces of bacon and 2 ounces of special sauce. If you have 20 pieces of bread, 32 pieces of meat, 20 pieces of cheese, 21 pieces of bacon and one quart of special sauce, how many sandwiches can you make?




2.

Explain in simple terms how you solved warm-up #1. In particular, what questions did you ask yourself and what conclusions did you draw from the answers?
