A hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell produces 36 g of water. 2H2(g)+O2(g)→2H2O(l)\mathrm{2H_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2H_{2}O(l)}2H2(g)+O2(g)→2H2O(l)
Relative atomic masses: H = 1, O = 16. One mole of any gas occupies 24 dm3\mathrm{dm^{3}}dm3 at room temperature and pressure.
What is the total volume of gas (hydrogen plus oxygen), measured at room temperature and pressure, used by the cell?
96 dm396\,\mathrm{dm^{3}}96dm3
72 dm372\,\mathrm{dm^{3}}72dm3
48 dm348\,\mathrm{dm^{3}}48dm3
36 dm336\,\mathrm{dm^{3}}36dm3
