<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[RxN - Balanced] CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
[Given] 36 g H₂O
[Solve] x g O₂
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
[RxN] 2 mol O₂ → 2 mol H₂O
[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mas of H - 1.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of O₂ - 2(16.00) = 32.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>
- Set up conversion:
- Divide/Multiply [Cancel Units]:
<u>Step 4: Check</u>
<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.</em>
63.929 g O₂ ≈ 64 g O₂
