No need to do any major calculations here. Since PV=nRT, we can see that volumes of a gas are proportional to the number of moles present. Therefore, in order for all of the CS2 to be reacted, by the stoichiometry of the reaction, 11 L * 3 = 33 L if O2 needs to be available. Since there is only 18 L of O2, it must be the limiting reagent: the answer is b). The bottom two are products, not reagents, so their being on the list of answers is silly.
