Answer :
Answer: 0.0086 moles of hydrogen are produced.
Explanation:
According to ideal gas equation:
[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]
total pressure = 755.2 mm Hg
pressure of water at [tex]22^0C[/tex] = 19.8 mm Hg
P = pressure of hydrogen = (755.2-19.8) mm Hg = 735.4 mm Hg = 0.97 atm
(760 mm Hg = 1atm)
V = Volume of gas = 215.8 ml = 0.2158 L
n = number of moles
R = gas constant =[tex]0.0821Latm/Kmol[/tex]
T =temperature =[tex]22.0^0C=(22.0+273)K=295K[/tex]
[tex]n=\frac{PV}{RT}[/tex]
[tex]n=\frac{0.97atm\times 0.2158L}{0.0821 L atm/K mol\times 295K}=0.0086moles[/tex]
Thus 0.0086 moles of hydrogen are produced.
