13.8 moles of Water will be produced when 3.45 moles of KMnO₄ reacts.

How to Calculate the number of moles of reactant and products in a chemical reaction ?

The equation should be balanced and gives proper stoichiometry.

The given equation for the reaction is ;

16HCl + 2KMnO₄  ------> 2KCl + 2MnCl₂ + 5Cl₂ + 8H₂O

This is a redox reaction involving HCl and KMnO4.

According to stoichiometry of the reaction, 2 moles of KMnO₄ will produce 8 moles of H₂O.

It means, 1 mol of  KMnO₄ will produce exactly 4 moles of  H₂O. (since 8/2 = 4).

Therefore, 3.45 moles of  KMnO₄ , will produce ;

       

3.45 moles × 4  = 13.8 moles

Hence, when 3.45 moles of KMnO₄ react, 13.8 moles of water will be produced.
