Question

To the right is the balanced equation: 2H₂ + 1O₂ ---> 2H₂OIf I have 5.2 moles of H₂ gas, how many moles of Water will be produced? (sig figscount

Answer 1

5.2 moles of H₂O will be produced.

Step-by-step explanation

Given:

Moles of H₂ gas = 5.2 moles

Balanced Equation: 2H₂ + 1O₂ ---> 2H₂O

What to find:

The moles of water that will be produced if 5.2 moles of H₂ gas react.

Solution;

From the balanced chemical equation for the reaction;

2 moles of H₂ produced 2 moles of H₂O

Therefore, 5.2 moles of H₂ will produce (5.2 moles of H₂/2 moles of H₂) x 2 moles of H₂O = 5.2 moles of H₂O.

Hence, the moles of water that will be produced if 5.2 moles of H₂ gas react. is 5.2 moles.
