A student weighed 0 .038 g ol magnesium to produce molecular hydrogen gas collected over water at 24.0 °C and 746 mm I lg atmospheric pressure. If the volume of the collected gas was 48.3 ml., what is the value of the gas constant, R, determined by the student? Assume that the percent yieldl is 100%. What is the % error (when compared with the true value, R = 0.08206 L•aum/K•mol)?
