At S. T. P how many litres of hydrogen can be obtained from the reaction of 500 cm\(^3\) of 0.5 M H\(_2\)SO\(_4\) with excess zinc metal?
(Gram molecular volume of H\(_2\) = 22.4 dm\(^3\))
(Gram molecular volume of H\(_2\) = 22.4 dm\(^3\))
22.4 dm 3
11 . 2 dm 3
6. 5 dm 3
5. 6 dm 3
0. 00 dm 3
Explanation
Zn + H\(_2\)SO\(_4\) → ZnSO\(_4\) + H\(_2\)
1mole : 1mole
n = \(\frac{CV}{1000}\)
= \(\frac{{0.5}\times{500}}{1000}\)
= 0.25 mole : 0.25 mole
n = \(\frac{Volume}{Molar Volume}\)
0.25 = \(\frac{V}{22.4}\)
V = 0.25 x 22.4
V = 5.6 dm\(^3\)
