The molar mass of H2O is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. What mass of H2O, ins grams, must react to produce 50.00 g of O2

Answer:
56.28 g
Explanation:
First change the grams of oxygen to moles.
(50.00 g)/(32.00 g/mol) = 1.5625 mol O₂
You have to use stoichiometry for the next part. Looking at the equation, you can see that for every 2 moles of H₂O, 1 mole of O₂ is produced. Convert from moles of O₂ to moles of H₂O using this relation.
(1.5625 mol O₂) × (2 mol H₂O/1 mol O₂) = 3.125 mol H₂O
Now convert moles of H₂O to grams.
(3.125 mol) × (18.01 g/mol) = 56.28125 g
Convert to significant figures.
56.28125 ≈ 56.28
