Small quantities of hydrogen can be prepared by the addition of hydrochloric acid to zinc. a sample of 195 ml of hydrogen was co
Vikentia [17]
Let's go over the given information. We have the volume, temperature and pressure. From the ideal gas equation, that's 4 out of 5 knowns. So, we actually don't need Pvap of water anymore. Assuming ideal gas, the solution is as follows:

PV=nRT
Solving for n,
n = PV/RT = (753 torr)(1 atm/760 torr)(195 mL)(1 L/1000 mL)/(0.0821 L·atm/mol·K)(25+273 K)
n = 7.897×10⁻³ mol H₂

The molar mass of H₂ is 2 g/mol.

Mass of H₂ = 7.897×10⁻³ mol * 2 g/mol = <em>0.016 g H₂</em>

An atom of element X has one more shell of electrons than an atom of beryllium, but it has one less valance electron than beryll
irakobra [83]
The atomic number of Be is 4, and so it has 2 shells. There are valence electrons in the second, which is the outermost, shell of Be. To get the element with one more shell, there would be 3 shells on the new element, and 1 less valence electron, so the new element should have 1 valence electron. Sodium is the element with 3 shells, and one valence electron which fits perfectly into the description.

Tresset [83]

During a scientific study a hypotheses is generally modified or discarded

so for first blank the answer is hypotheses

Now in case of phlogiston theory it was assumed that when a substance catches fire it evolve certain substances known as phlogiston which was later on discarded as there is no such particle. Infact a substane undergoing oxidation may gain weight

Hence in second blank the answer is new evidence didn’t support it,
