Answer:
The correct answer to the following question will be "Pressure = 18394.168 torr".
Explanation:
The reaction is:
Zn + 2HCl ⇒ ZnCl2 + H2
Let,
H2 = 1 mole
Volume, V = 1 L
As we know,
[tex]Pressure(P) = \frac{nRT}{V}[/tex]
On putting the values in the above formula, we get
[tex]P=\frac{1\times 0.0821\times 295.15}{1}[/tex]
[tex]P=24.2318 \ atm[/tex]
[tex]P=24.2318\times 760[/tex]
[tex]P=18416.168 \ torr[/tex]
Now,
[tex]P \ original = P \ obtained-PH2O[/tex]
[tex]P \ original=18416.168-22[/tex]
[tex]P \ original=18394.168 \ torr[/tex]
