    Answer:

    C. 33.6L

    Explanation:

    Based on the reaction, 2 moles of HCl reacts producing 1 mole of hydrogen.

    To solve this question we must find the moles of hydrogen produced using the reaction. Then, with combined gas law (PV = nRT) we can find the volume produced:

    Moles H2:

    3.00 moles HCl * (1mol H2 / 2mol HCl) = 1.50 moles H2 are produced

    Volume:

    PV = nRT

    V = nRT / P

    Where P is pressure = 1atm at STP

    V is volume = Our incognite

    n are moles of the gas = 1.50 moles

    R is gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK

    T is absolute temperature = 273.15K

    V = nRT / P

    V = 1.50mol*0.082atmL/molK*273.15K / 1atm

    V = 33.6L

    C. 33.6L
