If 1.320 moles of CH4 reacts completely with oxygen, how many grams of H2O can be formed
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

47.5 g of water can be formed

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

CH₄  +  2O₂  →  CO₂ + 2H₂O

Methane combustion.

In this process 1 mol of methane react with 2 moles of oxygen to produce 2 moles of water and 1 mol of carbon dioxide.

As ratio is 1:2, I will produce the double of moles of water, with the moles of methane I have.

1.320 mol  .2 = 2.64 moles

Now, we can convert the moles to mass (mol . molar mass)

2.64 mol . 18g/mol = 47.5 g
