Any units will do. For example, let's use the unit of "dozens":

2 dozen of H2 particles + _(1, 2, or 3)__ dozen of O2 particles → _(1, 2, or 3)_ dozen water particles

Answer:

2 dozen of H₂ particles + 1 dozen of O₂ particles → 2 dozen of H₂O particles.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • For the reaction of water formation:

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O.

  • It should apply the the law of conservation of mass that the no. of reactants atoms is equal to the no. of products atoms.

So, every 2.0 moles of H₂ react with 1.0 mole of O₂ to produce 2.0 moles of H₂O.

So, the represented reaction of the problem is:

2 dozen of H₂ particles + 1 dozen of O₂ particles → 2 dozen of H₂O particles.
