Question
Suppose you are performing a gas-producing reaction to experimentally determine the molar volume of the gas.
Mg (s) + 2 HC1 (aq) → MgCl₂ (aq) + H₂ (g)
A sample of Mg produces 21.5 mL of H₂ gas. The gas is collected over water at an atmospheric pressure of 769.6 mm Hg at 22 °C, at which the
vapor pressure of water is 19.8 mm Hg.
What is the experimental value for the molar volume of the hydrogen gas in L/mol?
