Explanation / Answer

From the stoichiometry of the reaction

Stoichiometric Molar ratio of CH4 : O2 = 1 : 2

From the given data

Molar ratio of CH4 : O2 = 0.1900 : 0.3800 = 1 : 2

Before the reaction

Total Moles n1 = 0.1900 + 0.3800 = 0.5700 mol

Volume V1 = 22.9 L

After the reaction

Moles of CO2 formed = moles of CH4 consumed = 0.1900 mol

Moles of H2O formed = 2*0.1900 = 0.3800 mol

Total Moles n2 = 0.1900 + 0.3800 = 0.5700 mol

Volume V2 =?

At constant temperature and pressure

From the Avogadro's Law

V1/n1 = V2/n2

V2 = V1*n2/n1

= 22.9*0.5700/0.5700

= 22.9 L
