Question
in the equation 2h₂ + 1o₂ →→ 2h₂o if you change the 2h₂ to 3h₂ molecules and balance the equation, identify which statement is correct? (1 point) the result of the equation will be the same. it is not possible to produce water without leftover molecules. each oxygen molecule will combine with 2 hydrogen molecules with no leftover molecules. the equation will produce three molecules of water.
When we change the hydrogen from $2H_2$ to $3H_2$ in the reaction with oxygen to form water, the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen required for complete reaction is disrupted. In the balanced equation $2H_2 + O_2
ightarrow 2H_2O$, 2 hydrogen - molecule pairs react with 1 oxygen molecule. With $3H_2$, there will be an un - used hydrogen molecule after the reaction with the available oxygen, so it's not possible to produce water without leftover molecules.
