Question

Background Sodium (or potassium) borohydride is a highly selective reagent that reduces aldehydes or ketones to the corresponding alcohels but normally does not reduce nitro, nitrile, olefinic, amide, carboxylic acid, or ester functional groups. The reagent is less reactive (i.e., more selective) than lithium aluminum hydr it may be used in aqueous or alcoholic solutions. Lithium aluminum hydride, on the other hand, reacts violently with such hydroxylic compounds and must be used in inert solvents such as et experiment a simple example of the use of sodium borohydride is illustrated hy the reduction of benzophenone (diphenyl ketone) to diphenylmethanol (diphenylcarbinol) her, tetrahydrofuran, etc. In this 6 Na Equations: 。.Nakti㈠ Benzophenone diphenylmethanol Amounts of Reactants Used: dla Ha NaBH4 37.83 g/mol18.0 g/mol 28.0 g/mol MW Moles Grams B.P M.P ml 182.2 g/mol 1.0 305 47 0.25 297 64.1℃ OPC 7.5

Fill in the table for me please!!! and what is the limiting reagent?? thanks!!!
