Based on the following chemical equation: 2C6H6 + 15O212CO2 + 6H2O, calculate the number of moles of CO2 that will be formed when 8. 90 mol of H2O are produced?

The balanced chemical equation as question gives can stand for the ratio of production. The ratio of CO2 and H2O is 12:6=2:1. So when 8.90 mol of H2O are produced, 8.90*2=17.8 mol CO2 will be produced.
