![**Chemical Reaction and Calculation of Water Production**
In the chemical reaction given below, methane (CH₄) reacts with oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O):
\[ \text{CH}_4\,(g) + 2\,\text{O}_2\,(g) \rightarrow \text{CO}_2\,(g) + 2\,\text{H}_2\text{O}\,(g) \]
**Question:**
What mass of water is produced by the complete reaction of 10 grams of methane?
**Options:**
- 5.7 g
- 23 g
- 18 g
- 11 g
Select the correct answer from the choices provided. Consider the stoichiometry of the reaction and use the molar masses of the reactants and products to determine the mass of water produced.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F2263fb78-830e-4ada-b34c-c6f0b1165c43%2F2449e0cb-585f-49ae-ba4f-3fff82b7dae3%2Fxz47i5a_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
