How many liters of hydrogen gas are required to react with 3.5" liters of oxygen gas in the following reaction? 2H2(g)+O2(g) -->2H2O(g)

Respuesta :

Answer:

7 L of H₂.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

2H₂ + O₂ —> 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

1 L of O₂ required 2 L of H₂.

Finally, we shall determine the volume of H₂ required to react with 3.5 L of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 L of O₂ required 2 L of H₂.

Therefore, 3.5 L of O₂ will require

= 3.5 × 2 = 7 L of H₂.

Thus, 7 L of H₂ is required to for the reaction.
