1. Calculate the number of moles of magnesium (you have a balance in the video that can determine the mass of magnesium). 2. Then, use stoichiometry (Mg --> H₂) to determine the number of moles of hydrogen gas that should react with magnesium.

Question
The data for question 1 is below: 47g
1. Calculate the number of moles of magnesium (you have a balance in the video that can determine the mass of
magnesium).
2. Then, use stoichiometry (Mg --> H₂) to determine the number of moles of hydrogen gas that should react with
magnesium.
3. Hydrochloric acid is an aqueous solution. Therefore, water vapor becomes a factor as well. You will need to subtract
the partial pressure due to water vapor at 25 degrees Celsius from the total pressure to attain the partial pressure
of only dry hydrogen gas (Refer to the water vapor chart image above);
4. Finally, use PV= nRT to calculate the volume of hydrogen gas. Remember that PV = nRT will calculate "liters" as the
volume.
