Answer:
Zinc metal reacts with excess hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas
Explanation: Acording to the following equation:
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq)ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
The product gas, H2, is collected over water at a temperature of 20 °C and a pressure of 753 mm Hg. If the wet H2 gas formed occupies a volume of 5.39 L, the number of moles of Zn reacted was mol. The vapor pressure of water is 17.5 mm Hg at 20 °C.
