The mass of Al metal that releases 2.4 L of hydrogen gas at STP is calculated as below

AT STP 1 mole =22.4 l
what about 22.4l =? moles
(22.4 L x 1 mole) /22.4 L= 2mole

write the reacing reaction

2Al+ 6 HCL = 2AlCl3 + 3H2
by use of mole ratio between Al to H2 which is 2 : 3 the mole Al = 1 x2/3 = 0.667 moles
mass =moles x molar mass
=0.667 mole x27 g/mol= 18 grams
