According to the balanced equation TWO moles ammonium nitrate produces FOUR moles of water. It’s a simple proportion. You get twice as many moles of water as you have ammonium nitrate. Can you get the answer from here?

Use dimensional analysis. 3.5 mol ammonium nitrate x 4 mol H2O/2 mol ammonium nitrate = 7.0 mol H2O. If you don’t understand dimensional analysis I suggest you learn it because it is used throughout chemistry.
