CH3CH2OH + O2 ==> H2O + CH3COOH ... balanced equation
1.2 g O2 x 1 mol O2 / 32 g x 1 mol H2O / mol O2 x 18 g H2O / mol = 0.68 g H2O

asked 10/02/21Wine goes bad soon after opening because the ethanol CH3CH2OH
in it reacts with oxygen gas O2 from the air to form water H2O and acetic acid CH3COOH, the main ingredient of vinegar.
What mass of water is produced by the reaction of
1.2g of oxygen gas?
