In the laboratory, hydrogen gas is usually made by the following reaction: Zn(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → H2(g) + ZnCl2(aq) How many liters

of H2 gas, collected over water at an atmospheric pressure of 752 mm Hg and a temperature of 21.0°C, can be made from 5.566 g of Zn and excess HCl? The partial pressure of water vapor is 18.65 mm Hg at 21.0°C.

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of hydrogen gas collected over water is 2.13 L

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass of zinc = 5.566 g

Molar mass of zinc = 65.4 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of zinc}=\frac{5.566g}{65.4g/mol}=0.0851mol

For the given chemical reaction:

Zn(s)+2HCl(aq.)\rightarrow H_2(g)+ZnCl_2(aq.)

As, HCl is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Zinc is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of zinc produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

So, 0.0851 moles of zinc will produce = \frac{1}[1}\times 0.0851=0.0851mol of hydrogen gas

To calculate the volume of hydrogen gas, we use ideal gas equation, which is:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of hydrogen gas = Total atmospheric pressure - vapor pressure of water = (752 - 18.65) mmHg = 733.35 mmHg

V = Volume of the hydrogen gas

n = number of moles of gas = 0.0851 moles

R = Gas constant = 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of hydrogen gas = 21^oC=[21+273]K=294K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

733.35mmHg\times V=0.0851mol\times 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 294K\\\\V=\frac{0.0851\times 62.3637\times 294}{733.35}=2.13L

Hence, the volume of hydrogen gas collected over water is 2.13 L

What is refraction? * Bending of light<br> Reflection of light
sdas [7]
Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows. Even our eyes depend upon this bending of light. Hope this helps!
