Introduction The objective of this experiment is to combine Magnesium (Mg) with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to determine the molar volume of hydrogen gas (H2) (converted to the molar volume at STP) and then‚ to compare obtained results with the molar volume of an ideal gas. To determine the measured molar volume of hydrogen gas‚ we are going to use this equation: The molar volume of the ideal gas will be determined by the equation ‚ where T = 237 K‚ P = 101.3 kPa. The hydrogen gas will be collected
