Answer:

A) 12 mol H2O.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given reaction:

[tex]2C_2H_6+7O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2 + 6 H_2O[/tex]

We notice that oxygen is in a 7:6 molar relationship with water, for that reason, the resulting moles of water turn out:

[tex]n_{H_2O}=14molO_2*\frac{6molH_2O}{7molO_2} \\\\n_{H_2O}=12molH_2O[/tex]

Thus, the answer is A) 12 mol H2O.

Best regards.
