First balance the equation.
CH4 +2 O2--->CO2 +2H2O
Note that there are 2 moles of water for each CH4
11.12

stability the equation first: CH4 + 2O2 ? CO2 + 2H2O use the ff molar lots: for CH4 = sixteen g/mol (C = 12; H = 4 x a million) for H2O = 18g/mol (H = 2 x a million, O = sixteen) via dimensional prognosis: 32.08 g CH4x [a million mol CH4/16g CH4] x [2 mol H2O/ a million mol CH4] x [18 g H2O/a million mol H2O] = seventy two.18 g H2O

If you balanced the equation you would find the moles of water is double the moles of methane.
