Answer:

Asteroids

At first glance, asteroids may seem like run-of-the-mill space rocks, but these ancient solar system remnants come in all shapes, sizes and flavors

Comets

For millennia, the sight of a comet elicited fear and awe. Ancient astronomers believed comets foretold the death of princes and the outcomes of wars. Modern astronomers know comets are the ice-clad leftovers from the material that formed our solar system billions of years ago.

Meteoroids

Meteoroids are the true space rocks of the solar system. No larger than a meter in size (3.3 feet) and sometimes the size of a grain of dust, they are too small to be considered asteroids or comets, but many are the broken pieces of either. Some meteoroids originate from the ejected debris caused by impacts on planets or moons.

How many liters of water vapor can be produced if 8.9 liters of methane gas (CH4) are combusted, if all measurements are taken a
Burka [1]
From the chemical equation given, one mole of CH4 yields two moles of water (H2O). If all the methane gas that is 8.9 L is combusted then the volume of water produced is the number of moles H2O times the volume of the methane gas used up, that is 8.9 L × 2 = 17.8 L of water produced.
