Answer:
400 mL
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of barium = 2.17 g
Pressure = 748 mmHg (748/760 = 0.98 atm)
Temperature = 21 °C ( 273+ 21 = 294k)
Milliliters of H₂ evolved = ?
Solution:
chemical equation:
Ba + 2H₂O → Ba(OH)₂ + H₂
Number of moles of barium:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 2.17 g / 137.327 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.016 mol
Now we will compare the moles of barium with H₂.
Ba : H₂
1 : 1
0.016 : 0.016
Milliliters of H₂:
PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = 0.016 mol × 0.0821 atm. mol⁻¹.k⁻¹.L×294 k/0.98 atm
V = 0.39 atm. L/0.98 atm
V = 0.4 L
L to mL
0.4 × 1000 = 400 mL
