I think you can only have 3 water molecules because you need 2 hydrogen molecules in every water molecule and you have 6 hydrogen molecules so 6/2=3 and the reactant that is limited would be hydrogen since it limits the amount of water molecules you can have

<u>Answer:</u> The hydrogen gas is the limiting reagent and 6 molecules of water are produced.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Molecules of hydrogen gas = 6 molecules

Molecules of oxygen gas = 6 molecules

The chemical equation for the reaction of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas follows:

2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 molecules of hydrogen gas reacts with 1 molecule of oxygen gas

So, 6 molecules of hydrogen gas will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 6=3 molecules of oxygen gas

As, given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrogen gas is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 molecules of hydrogen gas produces 2 molecules of water

So, 6 molecules of hydrogen gas will produce = \frac{2}{2}\times 6=6 molecules of water

Hence, the hydrogen gas is the limiting reagent and 6 molecules of water are produced.

Which is a characteristic of nuclear fusion but NOT nuclear fission?
lisabon 2012 [21]
The answer is B. is the energy source of stars.

Fission is the type of nuclear energy simulated on Earth, as it is the one used to generate electricity. Fusion, on the other hand, is much more complicated to achieve because it requires extremely hot temperatures compared to fission. Fusion involves the combination of two hydrogen atoms to make helium, which releases a lot of energy. Stars such as the sun, exhibit fusion with its very hot temperature and abundant source of hydrogen.

Answer: glass is not considered as solute.

Extra's:

A solute is a substance that gets dissolved in a solvent. ... The solutes in air are oxygen, argon, and carbon dioxide gas, as well as water vapour.

Sugar is a solute in the solvent water. Sugar is one of the most soluble solutes in water.

Also solute is a powder that can be dissolved in solvent like water. here baking soda is a solute.
