Question

18. For the recoton 2H2 + O2 + 2H20. how many moles of water can be produced from 23.2 mol of

hydrogen?

Answer 1

23.2 mols

Step-by-step explanation:

(23.2 mol H2)(2 mol H2O) /(2 mol H2) = 23.2 mol H2O

you have to do stoichiometry - so start of with what you are given, which is 23.2 mols of hydrogen, then to cancel out mols of hydrogen, divide by what is in the equation: so 23.2 mols H2 / 2 mols H2. Next, to get mols of H2O multiply that number by the mols of water in the equation.

this answer makes sense because as you can see in the equation, there are 2 H2:2 H2O, so the amounts should be the same.

hope this helps! make sure to practice because it is ESSENTIAL that you understand this, especially if you plan on taking ap chem. good luck! :)
