Answer:
24 Lt/mol
Explanation:
Though we have many data here (such as molar mass of Mg, water vapor pressure, etc), we need to focus on data for Hâ‚‚, which will help us to obtain the molar volume of this gas
Statement refers the following data for Hâ‚‚:
V = 82.1 ml = 0.082 Lt
T = 22°C = 295 K
P atm = 766.7 mm Hg = 1.0089 atm (which is, the pressure for Hâ‚‚ before being collected in water)
If we consider Hâ‚‚ behaves as an ideal gas:
PV = nRT
Then we can move some terms from this ecuation :
V/n = RT/P so we can obtain the relation between V (volume) and n (N° of moles) for H₂, which is the experimental valur for the molar volume
Considering R = 0.082 Lt*atm/K*mol:
V/n = [(0.082 Lt*atm/K*mol)x295 K]/1.0089 atm
V/n = 23.97 Lt/mol (molar volume at this experiment conditions)
