QUESTION:
Consider the chemical reaction:
How many liters of hydrogen gas are formed from the complete reaction of 15.7 g C? Assume that the hydrogen gas is collected at a pressure of 1.0 atm and a temperature of 355 K.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
Stoichiometry basically deals with moles of reactants consumed in reaction and moles of products produced in the reaction. It employs the use of stoichiometric numbers present before reacting species in a chemical reaction.
Given Data:
*The mass of carbon is 15.7 g.
*The pressure of hydrogen is 1.0 atm.
*The temperature is 355 K.
The given reaction is as follows:
In the reaction, 1 mole of solid carbon on reaction with water gives 1 mole of 
The molar mass of C(s) is 12.01 g/mol.
The formula to calculate moles is as follows:
Substitute the values of carbon in formula.
From the stoichiometry, 1.31 moles of C will give 1.31 moles of
