Calculate the amount of water produced by the combustion of 32 g of methane.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`CH_4(g)+2O_(2)(g)toCO_(2)(g)+2H_(2)O(g)` As per the stoichiometric equation,
Combustion of 1 mole (16 g) `CH_4` produces 2 moles `(2xx18=36g)` of water

Combination of 32 g `CH_4` produces
`(36" g "H_2O)/(cancel(16 g CH_4))xxcancel(overset(2)32gCH_4)=72g` of water
