Balanced equation: Mg+2HCl=MgCl2 + H2
Showing that if Mg is not a limiting factor then 2 moles of HCl on complete reaction liberate 1 mole of Hydrogen
therefore:
1 mole of HCl=35.5g, 40g=x
X= 40/35.5= 1.127mole
2 moles of HCl = 1 moles of Hydrogen
1.127=X
X=1.127/2 = 0.56
the theoretical yield of hydrogen
For the titration we use the equation,
M₁V₁ = M₂V₂
where M is molarity and V is volume. Substituting the known values,
(0.15 M)(43.2 mL) = (2)(M₂)(20.5 mL)
We multiply the right term by 2 because of the number of H+ in H2SO4. Calculating for M₂ will give us 0.158 M. Thus, the answer is approximately 0.16M.

Explanation:
Reaction of sodium with water
Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic. During the reaction, the sodium metal may well become so hot that it catches fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour. The reaction is slower than that of potassium (immediately below sodium in the periodic table), but faster than that of lithium (immediately above sodium in the periodic table).
2Na(s) + 2H2O → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
