No.of moles of magnesium = 6/24 = 0.25 moles.

Reaction: 0.25Mg + 0.5Hcl ...........> 0.25H2 + 0.25Mgcl2.

No.of moles of H2 is 0.25moles.

No.of moles of H2 = weight of H2/molecular weight of H2.

0.25 = ?/2.

Weight of H2 is 0.25*2 = 0.5gm.

Reaction: Mg + H2SO4 -> MgSO4 + H2.
Mol wt of Mg = 24,
Mol wt of H2 = 2,
24 gm of Mg = 2 gm of H2,
6 gm of Mg = ?,
Weight of H2 = (6 * 2)/24 = 0.5 gm.

Mg+H2So4 ->MgSo4+H2.

Mol wt. Of Mg=24,
Mol wt of H2=2,
6 gm of mg= 2/24,
1 gm of mg= 2*6/24,
H2 Produced :- 0.5.
