Answer :
Answer:
69.8 kilo Pasacl is the pressure of the hydrogen gas.
Explanation:
[tex]Mg+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_2+H_2[/tex]
Pressure at which hydrogen gas collected = p = 101.2 kilo Pascals
Vapor pressure water = [tex]p^o[/tex] = 31.4 kilo Pascals
The pressure of hydrogen gas = P
The pressure at which gas was collected was sum of vapor pressure of water and hydrogen gas.
[tex]p=P+p^o[/tex]
[tex]P =p-p^o=101.2 kPa-31.4 kPa=69.8 kPa[/tex]
69.8 kilo Pasacl is the pressure of the hydrogen gas.
