    The reaction between Hydrogen and Oxygen under normal conditions is characterized by the following balanced equation:

    2 H₂ + O₂ → 2 H₂O

    The mole ratio (based on the coefficient used to balance the chemical equation) of H₂ : O₂ is 2 : 1.

    Thus there are two times as many moles of H₂ in the reaction as there are moles of O₂.

    ∴ if the moles of H₂ = 1.75 mol

    then the moles of O₂ = 1.75 mol : 2

    = 0.875 mol

    Now, Mass = Moles * Molar Mass

    Thus the mass of oxygen gas = 0.875 mol * 32 g/mol = 28 g

    Thus the answer is 28 grams.
