.
- Answer
-
- Convert mL to L
- Multiply L by the molarity to determine moles of H 3 PO 4
- Convert moles of H 3 PO 4 to moles of H 2
- Multiply moles of H 2 by the molar mass of H 2 to get the answer in grams
-
Perform the calculations outlined.
- Answer
-
1. \(118.5\: mL\times \dfrac{1\: L}{1000\: mL} = 0.1185\: L\)
2. \(0.1185\: L \times \dfrac{0.8775\: moles\: \ce{H3PO4}}{1\: L} = 0.1040\: moles\: \ce{H3PO4}\)
3. \(0.1040\: moles\: \ce{H3PO4} \times \dfrac{3\: moles\:\ce{H_2}}{2\: moles\: \ce{H3PO4}} = 0.1560\: moles\: \ce{H2}\)
4. \(0.1560\: moles\: \ce{H2} \times \dfrac{2.02 g}{1\: mole} = 0.3151g\: \ce{H2}\)
