How many grams of H2 would be formed if 34 grams of carbon reacted with an unlimited amount of H2O? The reaction is:

C + H2O → CO + H2

Is this equation balanced?

1 answer

Obviously the equation is balanced.
Each mole of C produces 1 mole of H2.
How many moles of C in 34g?
That's how many moles of H2 you get.
Convert that back to grams.

You'll get (34/12) * 2 grams
