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))rarrCO_(2(g))+2H_(2)O_((g)) `
As per the stoichiometric equation,
Combustion of 1 mole (16 g) `CH_(4)` produces 2 moles (2 `xx `18 = 36 g) of water.

Combustion of 32 g `CH_(4)` produces
`(36 g H_(2)O)/(16g CH_(4)) xx 32xxCH_(4)` 2= 72 g of water
