Deep inside Earth, between the molten iron core and the thin crust at the surface, there is a solid body of rock called the mantle. When rock from the mantle melts, moves to the surface through the crust, and releases pent-up gases, volcanoes erupt.

Explanation: hot molten rock, ash, and gases escape from the volcano

Consider the reaction of gaseous hydrogen with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous water. Given that the first picture represents

Bogdan [553]

The question is incomplete. There's missing the image, which is shown below.

Answer:

Volume of O₂ = 6 L, volume of mixture: 18 L, volume of H₂O = 12 L, molecule volume of H₂O = 0.667 molecule/L

Explanation:

The reaction between hydrogen gas and oxygen gas to form water is:

2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g)

So, for 1 mol of O₂ is necessary 2 moles of H₂ form 2 moles of H₂O. As the images below there's 8 molecules of H₂, 4 molecules of O₂, 12 molecules in the mixture, and 8 molecules of H₂O. Thus, there are stoichiometric values.

All the images are at the same temperature and pressure, so, by the ideal gas law:

PV= nRT, where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature.

The number of moles and molecules are related, so let's substitute it in the equation. For the H₂:

P*12 = 8*RT

RT/P = 12/8 = 1.5

Thus, for O₂:

PV= nRT

V = n*(RT/P)

V = 4*1.5 = 6 L

For the mixture:

V = 12*1.5 = 18 L

For H₂O:

V = 8*1.5 = 12 L

The molecule volume is the number of molecules divided by the volume they occupy, thus for water: 8/12 = 0.667 molecules/L
