What volume of hydrogen is formed by the interaction of 10.2 g of iron with the required amount of sulfuric acid?
What volume of hydrogen is formed by the interaction of 10.2 g of iron with the required amount of sulfuric acid? What is this amount? How many hydrogen molecules will this result?
1. Let’s compose the equation of chemical interaction.
Fe + H2SO4 = FeSO4 + H2.
2. Let’s find the amount of iron, and then by the reaction equation of the amount of sulfuric acid and hydrogen.
n (Fe) = m (Fe) / M (Fe) = 10.2 g / 56 g / mol = 0.182 mol.
n (H2SO4) = n (Fe) = 0.182 mol.
n (H2) = n (Fe) = 0.182 mol.
3. Let’s find the volume of the formed hydrogen and the number of its molecules.
V (H2) = n (H2) * Vm = 0.182 mol * 22.4 L / mol = 4.08 L.
N (H2) = n (H2) * NA = 0.182 mol * 6.02 * 10 ^ 23 mol-1 = 1.0965 * 10 ^ 23.
Answer: n (H2SO4) = 0.182 mol; V (H2) = 4.08 L; N (H2) = 1.0965 * 10 ^ 23.
