Answer:

2 molecules of water

Step-by-step explanation:

In chemical reactions, molecules and compounds chemically combine to give products. This involves atoms combining by re-establishing bonding relationships.

4 hydrogen atoms is equivalent to 2 molecules of Hydrogen gas = H₂

2 oxygen atoms is the same as 1 oxygen molecule = O₂

This 2 molecules of hydrogen gas and 1 molecule of O₂ gas will combine to form 2 molecules of water chemically;

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
