50 g of sample of calcium when reacted with excess of dil HCL 4.48L of H2 gas was liberated at STP Ca + 2HCL = CaCl+ H2. Find the percentage purity of the sample. 
a) 22%
b) 16% 
c) 50%
d) 40%

Dear studentThe reaction is Ca+ 2HCl  CaCl2+ H222.4g H2 is produced from 40.08g Ca4.48L will be produced from 40.0822.4×4.48                           = 8.01g of Caweight of sample =50g% purity is 8.0150×100                    = 16.02%

option b is correct

Regards
