13.7 moles of oxygen (O₂) are required to completely react with 27.4 mol of H₂.

Explanation:

The complete question is:

"The following balanced equation shows the formation of water.

2H₂ + O₂ ----> 2H₂O

How many moles of oxygen (O₂) are required to completely react with 27.4 mol of H₂?

A: 6.8 mol

B: 13.7 mol

C: 54.8 mol

D: 109.6 mol"

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. That is, what is intended with it is to find the fourth term of a proportion knowing the other three. Remember that proportionality is a constant relationship or ratio between different magnitudes.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, that is, when one magnitude increases, so does the other (or when one magnitude decreases, so does the other), the direct rule of three must be applied. To solve a direct rule of three, the following formula must be followed:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

So:

The rule of three can be applied in this case in the following way: by stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), you know that 2 moles of H₂ react 1 mole of O₂. If there are 27.4 moles of H₂, how many moles of O₂ will react?

moles of O₂=13.7

13.7 moles of oxygen (O₂) are required to completely react with 27.4 mol of H₂.
