The volume of H₂ : = 15.2208 L
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
2 As (s) + 6 NaOH (aq) → 2 Na₃AsO₃ (s) + 3 H₂ (g)
34.0g of As
Required
The volume of H₂ at STP
Solution
mol As (Ar = 75 g/mol) :
= mass : Ar
= 34 g : 75 g/mol
= 0.453 mol
From the equation, mol ratio As : H₂ = 2 : 3, so mol H₂ :
=3/2 x mol As
=3/2 x 0.453
= 0.6795
At STP, 1 mol = 22.4 L, so :
= 0.6795 x 22.4 L
= 15.2208 L
As far as I can tell the best answer for this would be (A) Neon. However, I would argue that this is at the very least a misleading question. Atoms are less identified by their electrons than their protons (which is represented always by its atomic number). Although atoms can gain or lose electrons, the protons would never change (and remain the same element). Personally, I would have written the question as, "When Magnesium loses its valence electrons, its new number of electrons would most closely resemble _____"
