Calcium hydride (CaH2) reacts with water to form hydrogen gas:

CaH2(s) + 2H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(aq) + 2H2(g)

How many grams of CaH2 are needed to generate 55.0 L of H2 gas at a pressure of 0.811 atm and a temperature of 32°C?

Answer #1

CaH2(s) + 2H2O Ca(OH)2(aq) + 2H2(g)

42g...............................................2x22.4L (STP condition)

?.................................................55L

=55x42/2x22.4

=51.562 g.

According to the question

P=0.81 atm, Temperature(T) = 320C

According to the Ideal gass equation PV =nRT

PV/nT = R, V is constant (56 L).

n= no of moles . n= wt/molecular weight

molecular weight is constant.

P1/w1xT1 =P2/w2 x T2

P1 = 1 atm (STP ), T1 = 273K (STP), w1 = 51.562 g (caluculated).

P2 = 0.81 atm , T1 = 32+273 K = 305K w2 =?

1/51.562 x 273 = 0.81/305 x w2

w2 = 51.562 x 273 x 0.814/305

w2 = 37.383 g.
