The volume of H₂ : = 15.2208 L
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
2 As (s) + 6 NaOH (aq) → 2 Na₃AsO₃ (s) + 3 H₂ (g)
34.0g of As
Required
The volume of H₂ at STP
Solution
mol As (Ar = 75 g/mol) :
= mass : Ar
= 34 g : 75 g/mol
= 0.453 mol
From the equation, mol ratio As : H₂ = 2 : 3, so mol H₂ :
=3/2 x mol As
=3/2 x 0.453
= 0.6795
At STP, 1 mol = 22.4 L, so :
= 0.6795 x 22.4 L
= 15.2208 L
