2. what is the mole ratio of water to oxygen in the following reaction?\nch₄ + 2 o₂ -> 2 h₂o + co₂\n?\n2 mole o₂
Answer
# Explanation:
## Step1: Identify the coefficients
In the balanced chemical equation \(CH_4 + 2O_2\rightarrow2H_2O+CO_2\), the coefficient of \(H_2O\) is \(2\) and the coefficient of \(O_2\) is \(2\).
## Step2: Calculate the mole ratio
The mole ratio of \(H_2O\) to \(O_2\) is \(\frac{\text{moles of }H_2O}{\text{moles of }O_2}\). Substituting the coefficients, we get \(\frac{2}{2}\).
# Answer:
\(1\) (since \(\frac{2}{2} = 1\))
