Question
If 5.00 mol of hydrogen gas and 5.00 mol of oxygen gas react, what is the limiting reactant and how many moles of water are produced from the reaction?$$2 \mathrm{H}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l)$$
Step 1
First, we need to determine the stoichiometry of the reaction. From the balanced equation, we can see that 2 moles of H2 react with 1 mole of O2 to produce 2 moles of H2O. Show more…
