Question

To make 2 molecules of water, you need 2 molecules of hydrogen plus 1 molecule of oxygen. If I have unlimited amounts of oxygen but only 4 grams of hydrogen, how much water could I make?

Answer 1

Hey there,

So first we need to know how much molecules are there in 4 grams of hydrogen right?
In one gram of hydrogen there are 6.0221415 multiplied by 10^25 molecules right?(this number is known as avagadors constant )

And to make one molecule of water u need two molecules of hydrogen and one of oxygen.
And oxygen is unlimited right?

So when we have 6.0221415 grams of hydrogen tow if these are required to make one water.
So divide that by two and you get 3.0110704 multiplied by 10^25.
So the answer is you can make the above number of water molecules.

Hope this helps!!!
