In a study of a gas-phase reaction, 18 cm3 of gas X reacts exactly with 54 cm3 of gas Y and produces 36 cm3 of gas Z. The temperature and pressure are kept constant for all three measurements.
Which equation is consistent with these results?
X(g)+2Y(g)→3Z(g)\mathrm{X(g)+2Y(g)\rightarrow3Z(g)}X(g)+2Y(g)→3Z(g)
X(g)+3Y(g)→2Z(g)\mathrm{X(g)+3Y(g)\rightarrow2Z(g)}X(g)+3Y(g)→2Z(g)
3X(g)+Y(g)→2Z(g)\mathrm{3X(g)+Y(g)\rightarrow2Z(g)}3X(g)+Y(g)→2Z(g)
X(g)+3Y(g)→Z(g)\mathrm{X(g)+3Y(g)\rightarrow Z(g)}X(g)+3Y(g)→Z(g)
