Solution: In this question, we are given of all the reactants and product, so we need to find the total first through the formula. = -32.89 - (2*0 + 209.2) =-242.1 (Be careful about significant figures).
Depending on the stain technique it can take anywhere from 2 to  24-hours for the stain to dry. For cabinets, you should wait the  entire 24-hours to make sure the stain is â¦not still tacky and to  prevent smudges on the finish.
Average Drying Time. As a general rule, 48 hours is sufficient drying time for a newly washed deck. But this also assumes optimal drying conditions, such as a sun-facing deck. If you are on the shadow side of the home where little to no sunlight reaches, wait at least 72 hours before applying any stain or sealer. Give the deck a visual inspection, as the surface should be completely dry and there should be neither any swelling or puffiness to the wood or softness to the surface.
