Question 28

There are 2 water molecules present in the products.

The products of the reaction yield a total of 2 water molecules, which is determined by the stoichiometry of the equation involved.

A) 2

This option is correct as it directly reflects the number of water molecules produced in the reaction. The stoichiometric coefficients in the balanced chemical equation indicate that 2 molecules of water are formed as products.

B) 4

This option is incorrect because it overestimates the number of water molecules produced. The reaction does not yield 4 water molecules according to the balanced equation, which specifically shows 2 as the correct amount.

C) 1

This option is also incorrect as it underrepresents the number of water molecules formed. The reaction clearly produces 2 water molecules, making 1 an inaccurate representation of the products.

Conclusion

The correct answer of 2 water molecules is supported by the stoichiometry of the reaction, confirming that options B and C are incorrect due to their failure to accurately reflect the products. Thus, option A is definitive in demonstrating the accurate count of water molecules in the products.
