Answer:


6.8 molH_2O

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for this balanced chemical reaction about the combustion of methane, it is possible for us to inspect the 2:2 mole ratio of water to oxygen as given for their coefficients in the balanced chemical reaction.

In such a wat, given 6.8 moles of oxygen, we can easily obtain the produced moles of water by applying the aforementioned mole ratio as shown below:


6.8molO_2*(2molH_2O)/(2molO_2)\\\\6.8 molH_2O

Best regards!
