C) The sugar is the limiting reactant because it will only allow for the production of 150 cups of lemonade.

Explanation:

The lemons are the limiting factor, limiting the production to 125 cups of lemonade (100/8 x 10 = 125 cups), leaving excess sugar and water unused. 125 cups of lemonade would provide for $187.50 profit.
