Answer: 4480 mL if need correct sig figs its 4.48 X 10^3 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

1) solve for moles HCl

2.00 X 0.2 =0.400 moles HCl

2) now do stoichiometry using balanced chemical equation

___Mg + 2 HCl ---> MgCl2 + H2

0.400 moles HCl X (1 mole H2/2 Moles HCl) X (22400ml/ 1mole) =4480 mL H2
