Answer:

40.g CaH2

Explanation:

1. ideal gas law(PV = nRT) → use ideal gas law first when volume is given

P = 0.995atm

V = 48.0L H2

n = ?

R = 0.0821L atm/molK

T = 32 + 273 = 305K

n = (0.995atm x 48.0L H2)/(0.0821L atm/molK x 305K) → do not simplify as small decimals might change the answer

2. Conversions

2 H2 and 1 CaH2 → 1/2

(mole of H2) x 1/2 x (molar mass of CaH2)

(0.995atm x 48.0L H2)/(0.0821L atm/molK x 305K) x 1/2 x (40.08 + 2.02) = 40.g CaH2

the longer answer will be 40.14887882 but as the minimum sigfig given in the question is 2, it is 40.g CaH2.

Hope it helped!

How do I calculate the molecular weight of Mg(OH)2?
vodomira [7]

The molecular weight of Mg(OH)2 : 58 g/mol

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Mg(OH)2 compound

Required

The molecular weight

Solution

Relative atomic mass (Ar) of element : the average atomic mass of its isotopes  

Relative molecular weight (M)  : The sum of the relative atomic mass of Ar  

M AxBy = (x.Ar A + y. Ar B)  

So for Mg(OH)2 :

= Ar Mg + 2 x Ar O + 2 x Ar H

= 24 g/mol + 2 x 16 g/mol + 2 x 1 g/mol

= 24 + 32 + 2

= 58 g/mol
