Question
A sample of magnesium metal reacts completely with an excess of hydrocholoric
acid:
Mg(s) + 2 HCl(aq) --> MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
The hydrogen gas produced is collected over water at 28.0 °C. The volume of the gas
is 52 L, and the total pressure in the gas collection vessel is 1.02 atm. Calculate the
mass of magnesium metal that reacted in grams. (Vapor pressure of water at 28.0 °C
= 28.2 mmHg) Just give the number. The assumption is the value is in grams.
