Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mass of Mercury vapor has to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
Ideal gas is the most usually used form of the ideal gas equation, which describes the relationship among the four variables P, V, n, and T. An ideal gas is a hypothetical sample of gas whose pressure-volume-temperature behavior is predicted accurately by the ideal gas equation.

The temperature of your water was 22.4 degrees Celsius. The volume of hydrogen collected was 35.3 mL. The atmospheric pressure in the lab room was 29.60 inches Hg. The difference in the water level between the beaker and the burette is 20.0 cm. What was the mass of the magnesium ribbon used?
Hint: 2 HCl(aq) + Mg(aq) = H2(g) + MgCl2(aq)
The vapor pressure of mercury at 20 oC is 1.7 x 10-6 atm. Your lab partner breaks a mercury thermometer and spills most of the mercury onto the floor. The dimensions of the laboratory are 16.0 m x 8.0 m x 3.0 m (l x w x h). At 20 oC, calculate the mass (in grams) of the mercury vapor in the room. Determine if the concentration of mercury vapor exceeds air quality regulations of 5.0 x 10-2 mg/m3. How would you clean up this spell?
