Answer: It produces water molecule.

Step-by-step explanation:

When hydrogen gas reacts with oxygen gas, it leads to the formation of water molecule.

The chemical equation for the formation of water molecule follows:


2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrogen gas reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of water molecule.

Hence, it produces water molecule.
