Zinc reacts with aqueous sulfuric acid to form hydrogen gas according to the reaction below. In an experiment, 0.225 L of wet H2 is collected over water at 21.6oC and a barometric pressure of 748 torr. How many grams of Zn have been consumed? The vapor pressure of water at this temperature is 18.8 torr. Zn (s) + H2SO4 (aq) → H2 (g) + ZnSO4 (aq)
