Approx. #40.5*L# of dioxygen gas.

#H_2(g) + 1/2O_2(g) rarrH_2O(l)#

Given the stoichiometry, clearly there are #"2 equiv"# dihydrogen gas per #"equiv"# dioxygen gas.

Under the same conditions of temperature and pressure, #81*L# of dihydrogen gas requires #40.5*L# dioxygen gas for stoichiometric equivalence.
