Answer:
54 g is the theoretical yield
Explanation:
This is the reaction:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
So 2 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mol of oxygen, to produce 2 mol of water.
If I have 3 moles of H₂ and 2 moles of O₂, the my limiting reactant is the hydrogen.
1 mol of O₂ react with 2 moles of H₂
S 2 mol of O₂ would react with 4 moles (I only have 3 moles)
Then, ratio is 2:2 the same as 1:1
As 2 mol of H₂ produce 2 moles of water, 3 moles of H₂ will produce 3 moles of H₂O.
This is the theoretical yield in moles. Let's convert them to mass (mol . molar mass)
3 mol . 18g/m = 54 g
O valence electron number is the answer
This is true. Solid, Liquid, and Gas.
Hope that helps!!
