Answer:

2Hcl  +mg--->MgCl2+ H2

The  theoretical  yield  of  hydrogen  is  calculated  as  follows

calculate  the  moles  of  Hcl

mass/molar  mass

40g/36.5=1.096  moles

by  use  of  mole  ratio  of  Hcl to  H2 which  is  2:1

moles  of  H2=1.096  /2=0.548moles

mass  is  therefore= moles  x molar  mass

that is  0.548moles  x 2  =1.096 grams
