When 27.50 liters of oxygen gas reacts with excess hydrogen gas at STP how many grams of water is produced?

The mass of water produced is 44.28 g

Explanation:

We are given:

Volume of oxygen gas = 27.50 L

At STP conditions:

22.4 L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a substance

27.50 L of oxygen gas will be occupied by =

The chemical equation for the formation of water follows:

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 1 mole of oxygen gas produces 2 moles of water

So, 1.23 moles of oxygen gas will produce = of water

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:

......(1)

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

Hence, the mass of water produced is 44.28 g
