Respuesta :
On increasing oxygen , the amount of water produced would stay the same , Option C is the correct answer.
What is Limiting Reagent ?
Limiting Reagent in any reaction is the reagent that is less amount than the other reagent involved and as it is in less quantity the reaction will be driven by its moles/mass present in the reaction.
It is given in the question
The flask contains hydrogen and oxygen gas
when a spark is touched to the flask they combine to form water
if the original reaction mixture contains more oxygen gas, the amount of water produced would = ?
The equation for formation of water is given by
2H₂ + O₂ ---> 2H₂0
Here 2 moles of Hydrogen combine with 1 mole of Oxygen to produce 2 moles of Water.
Even if Oxygen is made excess , the equation will be driven by the limiting reagent and that will be hydrogen and the formation of water will remain same as the moles of limiting reagent remains same.
Therefore on increasing oxygen , the amount of water produced would stay the same, Option C is the correct answer.
