Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, if you start with 3 moles of O2, how many moles of H2 are required?
  • Step 1: Look at the chemical equation: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O.
  • Step 2: Identify the ratio of O2 to H2 in the equation. It shows that 1 mole of O2 needs 2 moles of H2.
  • Step 3: Since you have 3 moles of O2, multiply the number of moles of O2 by the ratio of H2 needed for each mole of O2.
  • Step 4: Calculate: 3 moles of O2 × 2 moles of H2 per mole of O2 = 6 moles of H2.
  • Step 5: Conclude that you need 6 moles of H2 for 3 moles of O2.
