The combustion of 9.8 moles of methanol will produce 352.8 grams of water.

Stoichiometric calculation

First, let us look at the balanced equation of combustion of methanol:

[tex]2CH_3OH(l)+3O_2(g)-- > 2CO_2(g)+4H_2O(l)[/tex]

The ratio of number of moles of methanol burned and that of water produced is 1:2.

Thus, 9.8 moles of methanol will produce 19.6 moles of water.

Mass of 19.6 moles water = 19.6 x 18 = 352.8 grams
