The correct response is:
Image with alt text: An illustration shows two horizontal tape diagrams made up of equally sized rectangles. Each rectangle is labeled 16. The top tape diagram is labeled oxygen atoms and is 2 rectangles long. The bottom tape diagram is labeled hydrogen atoms and is 1 rectangle long.
The correct representation of the ratio with a tape diagram is the first option: "An illustration shows two horizontal tape diagrams made up of equally sized rectangles. Each rectangle is labeled 16. The top tape diagram is labeled oxygen atoms and is 2 rectangles long. The bottom tape diagram is labeled hydrogen atoms and is 1 rectangle long."
To represent the given ratio of two hydrogen atoms to one oxygen atom with a tape diagram, we need to create two horizontal tape diagrams.
In the first diagram, label it as "Hydrogen atoms" and make it two rectangles long. Each rectangle should be labeled as 2, since there are two hydrogen atoms in the ratio. All the rectangles in this diagram should be equally sized.
In the second diagram, label it as "Oxygen atoms" and make it one rectangle long. The rectangle should be labeled as 1, since there is one oxygen atom in the ratio. Again, all the rectangles in this diagram should be equally sized.
This representation accurately shows the ratio of two hydrogen atoms to one oxygen atom using tape diagrams.
