Electrical energy can be used to separate water into O2(g) and H2(g). In one demonstration of this reaction, 17.00 mL of H2 are collected over water at 25°C. Atmospheric pressure is 741.0 mmHg. How many grams of hydrogen are collected?

Answer #1

the weight of hydrogen is calculated by gas law principle.

PV = nRT

where

  

  • P is the pressure of the gas, measured in atmospheric pressure
  • V is the volume of the gas, measured in litre
  • n is the amount of substance, measured in moles,
  • R is the ideal gas constant and
    R=0.08205 L.atm/mol⋅K
  • T is the temperature of the gas, measured in Kelvins.

P + Pressure in HG mm,

V = volume in lit here 17 ml

T =temperature in kelvin here 25C.

R = constant of ideal gas

n = no of mole of hydrogen

the answer is calculated by putting the value of respective parameters

= .000677 mole

so multiplying this with hydrogen mol wt 2 = 0.00135 gm hydrogen
