A chemist reacts magnesium with hydrochloric acid and collects 57.48 mL of the hydrogen gas that is produced by water displacement. If the lab temperature is 24 C and the atmospheric pressure is 742.1 mm Hg, how many grams of hydrogen are produced? Water vapor pressure is 22.4 mm Hg at 24 C.

0.00446 grams of hydrogen are produced.

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure at which hydrogen gas was collected = p

p = 742.1 mmHg

Vapor pressure of the hydrogen gas = p' = 22.4 mmHg

Pressure of the hydrogen gas = P

P = p - p' = 742.1 mmhg - 22.4 mmhg = 719.7 mmHg

719.7 mmHg =

1 atm = 760 mmHg

Volume of the hydrogen gas ,V = 57.48 mL = 0.05748 L

1 mL =0.001 L

Temperature of the hydrogen gas = T = 24°C=24+ 273 K = 297 K

Moles of hydrogen gas = n

( Ideal gas equation)

n = 0.00223 mol

Mass of 0.00223 moles of hydrogen gas:

0.00223 mol × 2 g/mol = 0.00446 g

0.00446 grams of hydrogen are produced.

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
