Question

In an experiment, a sample of zinc metal was added to excess hydrochloric acid and the evolved hydrogen gas was collected over water at 25oC and 1 atm total pressure.  The volume of gas collected was 1.95 L.  What is the mass of zinc (in g) that was consumed?  Assume ideal gas behavior, and round your answer to the hundredths (0.01) place.

At 25oC, the vapor pressure of water is 23.8 torr.

Zn(s) + 2 HCl(aq) --> ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
