To answer this question, you will need to write the balanced equation and set up a BCA table. Using appropriate rounding rules,

Elenna [48]

Water decomposes when electrolyzed to produce hydrogen and oxygen gas. If 2.5 grams of water were decomposed 1.04 grams of oxygen will be formed.

BCA table:

2 $H_{2}$ O ⇒ $H_{2}$ + $O_{2}$
