Detailed Solution
Given information of the first statement that 3 moles of A and 4 moles of B produce moles of C.
Explanation:
From the reaction
It can conclude that, to prepare 1 mole of C; we require 3 moles of B and 2 moles of A. It can be said that for preparing x moles of C, 3x moles of B and 2x moles of A are required.
So, to prepare moles of C , :
moles of B and moles of A
Hence, 4 moles of B and 2.6 moles of A require to produce moles of C.
This means that first statement is false.
According to the question, there are 3 moles of A to produce moles of 'C', but required moles is only 2.6 moles. Hence, A is excess reagent and B is limiting Reagent.
So, Statement 1 is false and statement 2 is true.
