**Directions ** 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 2. In a large bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the eggs, oil and water and mix for 2 minutes or until smooth. Pour into batter bowl. 3. Scoop icing into the batter. 4. Microwave cake on the highest level for 9 minutes and let cool for 2 minutes. Once cooled flip over onto large platter and slide the cake out.
 * 2 cups sugar
 * 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
 * 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
 * 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
 * 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
 * 1 teaspoon salt
 * 3 eggs
 * 1/2 cup oil
 * 1 ¼ cup water

If you had 1 3/4 cup sugar, 2 eggs, and enough of the rest of your ingredients, how much cake could you bake?

2 mol of eggs 1.75 mol of sugar sugar limiting reactant 1.75/2=.875 mol of sugar

2/3= .666 mol of egg egg is limiting reactant which means, since, only 2/3 of something can be used, then everything else has to be 2/3, which in turn would make 2/3 of a mole of cake. but since a cake is a cake, no matter what the size, i still baked a cake.
