Hydrogen and oxygen combine in the ratio of 1: 8 by mass to form water. What mass of oxygen gas would be required to react completely with 3 g of hydrogen gas?


 The ratio of H: O by mass in water is:
Hydrogen: Oxygen —> H2O
∴ 1 : 8 = 3 : x
x = 8 x 3
x = 24 g
24 g of oxygen gas would be required to react completely with 3 g of hydrogen gas.
