Answer:

[tex]2H_2+O_2=2H_2O[/tex]

Explanation:

The chemical formula for hydrogen is H while chemical formula for oxygen is O

Considering that two moles of hydrogen and 2 moles of oxygen react to form water, the equation will be

[tex]2H_2+2O_2=H_2O[/tex]

The number of oxygen molecules don't balance on both LHS and RHS hence to balance it, we put it as follows

[tex]2H_2+O_2=2H_2O[/tex]

Normally, two moles of hydrogen require only one mole of oxygen to form two moles of water.
