QuestionPredi 3: Molar mass, Conversions, Conservation of Mass, Balancing Equations, 24) In the equation: H2( g)+O2( g)H2O\mathrm{H}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{O}_{2}(\mathrm{~g}) \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} (I) what state of matter is H2\mathrm{H}_{2} ? What tate of matter is H2O\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} ?

STEP 1

What is this asking? This problem is asking us to identify the states of matter of hydrogen gas (H2H_2) and water (H2OH_2O) in a chemical reaction. Watch out! Don't confuse the abbreviations for states of matter! gg means gas, ll means liquid, ss means solid, and aqaq means aqueous (dissolved in water).

STEP 2

1. Identify the state of H2H_2.
2. Identify the state of H2OH_2O.

STEP 3

Look at the equation: H2(g)+O2(g)H2O(l)H_2(g) + O_2(g) \rightarrow H_2O(l).
See that little (g)(g) after the H2H_2?
That tells us something super important!

STEP 4

The (g)(g) stands for **gaseous**, which means H2H_2 is in the **gas** state!
Woohoo!

STEP 5

Now, let's look at the equation again: H2(g)+O2(g)H2O(l)H_2(g) + O_2(g) \rightarrow H_2O(l).
This time, we're focusing on the H2OH_2O.
Notice that it's followed by an (l)(l).

STEP 6

The (l)(l) stands for **liquid**, meaning H2OH_2O is in the **liquid** state!
So cool!

STEP 7

In the given equation, H2H_2 is in the **gaseous** state, and H2OH_2O is in the **liquid** state.
