Water is said to be produced when natural gas is burned. Is there some tangible way to measure the amount of this water? or some experiment to capture some, or even just a drop of this moisture produced?
In: Chemistry
Two hydrogen atoms burned become one water molecule, and natural gas is mostly CH4, or 4 hydrogen atoms and a carbon. So every molecule of natural gas burns to make two water molecules and one carbon dioxide molecule.
We know how many molecules are in a given mass of natural gas, so you can calculate how many molecules of water it’ll make, and how many gallons that’d make too.
