How many liters of hydrogen gas is produced from 3.712 g of magnesium with 104.2ml of 1.385 mol/L HCL (aq) at SATP? Please show your work and explain it. I really need help with this question, it's on one of my quizzes.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

Next, we compute the reacting moles of each reactants:

Then, as magnesium and hydrohloric acid are in a 1:2 molar ratio 0.153 moles of magnesium will completely react with 0.306 moles of hydrochloric acid yet we only have 0.144 moles, therefore, limiting reactant is hydrochloric acid. Thus, we compute the produced moles of hydrogen:

Finally, we use the ideal gas equation with T=298K and 1atm (STP conditions) to compute the liters of hydrogen gas:
