126 grams of H2O is formed.

Explanation:

Data given:

volume of the gas = 88 Liters

pressure = 720 mm Hg or 0.947 atm

temperature T = 22 Degrees or 295.15 K

R = 0.08021 atm L/mole K

n =?

The formula is used is of ideal gas law to know the number of moles of CH4 undergoing combustion.

PV = nRT

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

putting the values in the equation

   = 0.947 X 88/ 0.08021 X 295.15

n = 3.5 moles

balanced reaction for combustion of methane

CH4 + O2  ⇒ CO2 + 2H20

1 mole of CH4 undergoes combustion to form 2 moles of water

3.5 moles will give x moles of water

2/1 = x/3.5

x =  7 moles of water  (atomic mass of water = 18 gram/mole)

mass = atomic mass x number of moles

mass = 18 x 7

          =126 grams of water is formed.
