Not sure if this is correct but i would choose the steel tray.
I know it would be calcium chloride, not sure why. Maybe someone could answer that part.
Answer:
50.76 mol H2O.
Explanation:
The photosynthesis follows the equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
This means that 6 mol of H2O are needed to obtain 1 mol of C6H12O6 (see the numbers that precedes every molecule to know how many mols are in game).
So we can say that:
1 mol C6H12O6 --------- 6 mol H2O
8.46 mol C6H12O6 -----x= 8.46 x 6 : 1 = 50.76 mol H20
