It protects the alloy against rusting.

Stainless steels contain more than 10% chromium by mass, but almost no carbon. Stainless steels are durable because chromium forms an oxide that protects the steel from rusting. But stainless steel is more brittle than steels that contain more carbon.

You wish to calculate the mass of hydrogen gas that can be prepared from 4.93 g of srh2 and 4.14 g of h2o.
Ivenika [448]
The maximum amount of hydrogen gas that can be prepared is if all the hydrogen from both compounds is released.

The hydrogen in 4.94 g of SrH2 is calculated from the mass ratios between Sr and H

1) H2 in SrH2

Sr atomic mass = 87.62 g/mol

H2 molar mass = 2.02 g/mol

Mass of 1 mol of SrH2 = 87.62 g / mol + 2.02 g/mol = 89.64 g/mol

Ratio of H2 to SrH2 = 2.02 g H2 / 89.64 g SrH2

Proportion: 2.02 g H2 / 89.64 gSrH2 = x / 4.93 g SrH2

=> x = 4.93 g SrH2 * 2.02 g H2 / 89.64 g SrH2 = 0.111 g H2

2) H2 in H2O

2.02 g H2 / 18.02 g H2O * 4.14 g H2O = 0.464 g H2

3) Total mass of hydrogen = 0.111 g + 0.464 g = 0.575 g

Answer: 0.575 g
