Answer:
2 mol H₂O
Explanation:
With the reaction,
- 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g)
1.55 moles of O₂ would react completely with ( 2*1.55 ) 3.1 moles of H₂. There are not as many moles of H₂, thus H₂ is the limiting reactant.
Now we <u>calculate the moles of H₂O produced</u>, <em>starting from the moles of limiting reactant</em>:
- 2.00 mol H₂ *
= 2 mol H₂O
