Answer : The mass of H_2O produced will be, 8.1 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Volume of CH_4 = 50dm^3=50L    (1dm^3=1L)

Volume of O_2 = 10dm^3=10L

Molar mass of H_2O = 18 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of CH_4 and O_2.

As, 22.4 L volume of CH_4 present in 1 mole of CH_4

So, 50 L volume of CH_4 present in \frac{50}{22.4}=2.23 mole of CH_4

and,

As, 22.4 L volume of O_2 present in 1 mole of O_2

So, 10 L volume of O_2 present in \frac{10}{22.4}=0.45 mole of O_2

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of O_2 react with 1 mole of CH_4

So, 0.45 moles of O_2 react with \frac{0.45}{2}=0.225 moles of CH_4

From this we conclude that, CH_4 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and O_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of H_2O.

As, 2 moles of O_2 react to give 2 moles of H_2O

As, 0.45 moles of O_2 react to give 0.45 moles of H_2O

Now we have to calculate the mass of H_2O.

\text{Mass of }H_2O=\text{Moles of }H_2O\times \text{Molar mass of }H_2O

\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.45mole)\times (18g/mole)=8.1g

Therefore, the mass of H_2O produced will be, 8.1 grams.
