One mole of oxygen was used in this reaction.
Two moles of oxygen were used in this reaction.
One mole of water was produced from this reaction.
Two moles of water were produced from this reaction.

Respuesta :

Answer:

- One mole of oxygen was used in this reaction.

- Two moles of water were produced from this reaction.

Explanation:

In addition: - Two moles of hydrogen were used.

Given the data from the question, the correct statement is:

  • One mole of water, H₂O was produced from the reaction

Basic concept

To know which options are correct, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ used and the number of mole of H₂O produced.

How to determine the mole of  O₂ used

Balanced equation

2H₂ + O₂ —> 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of H₂ required 1 mole of O₂

Therefore,

1 mole of H₂ will require = 1 / 2 = 0.5 mole of O₂

Thus, 0.5 mole of O₂ is needed for the reaction

How to determine the mole of H₂O produced

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of H₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of H₂O

Therefore,

1 mole of H₂ will also react to to produce 1 mole of H₂O

Thus, 1 mole of H₂O was produced from the reaction.

SUMMARY

When 1 mole of H₂ was used in the reaction,

  • 0.5 mole of O₂ was used
  • 1 mole of H₂O was produced

Considering the options given in the question above, the correct statement is:

  • 1 mole of H₂O was produced
