Answer: 2.00 mol
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation is:
[tex]2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(g)[/tex]
According to stoichiometry :
2.00 moles of [tex]H_2[/tex] require = 1.00 moles of [tex]O_2[/tex]
Thus 2.00 moles of [tex]H_2[/tex] will require=[tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 2.00=1.00moles[/tex] of [tex]O_2[/tex]
Thus both will act as limiting reagents and will be fully consumed.
2.00 moles of [tex]H_2[/tex] will form = 2 moles of [tex]H_2O[/tex]
Thus 2.00 moles of [tex]H_2[/tex] will form = [tex]\frac{2}{2}\times 2.00=2.00moles[/tex] of [tex]H_2O[/tex]
Thus 2.00 moles of [tex]H_2O[/tex] will be produced from the given masses of both reactants.
