Answer:

0.19 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Volume of hydrogen at standard temperature and pressure (STP): 2.1 L

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 2.1 L of hydrogen at STP

At STP (273.15 K and 1 atm), 1 mole of hydrogen has a volume of 22.4 L if we treat it as an ideal gas.

2.1 L × 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.094 mol

Step 3: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.094 moles of hydrogen

The molar mass of hydrogen is 2.02 g/mol.

0.094 mol × 2.02 g/mol = 0.19 g
