Small amounts of hydrogen gas are often produced by reaction of zinc with HCl;
Zn(s) + 2 HCl(aq) ® H2(g) + ZnCl2(aq)
How many liters of H2 gas, collected over water at a pressure of 587.8 mm Hg and temperature of 22.00 °C (The vapor pressure of water at this temperature is 19.83 mm Hg.) will be produced by the reaction of 1.668 g of Zn with an excess of HCl?
Update:Please walk me through this?? I tried using PV=nrt but I don't think that's the way to get it because all my answers are wrong.
the first thing i did was subtract 19.83 from 587.8 and then convert to atm. then i changed degrees celsius to kelvin but then i don't know what else to do...
PLEASE HELP I AM DESPERATE and thanks a tons for your help :)

You're on the right track; you do want to use PV=nrt. The only thing you didn't mention is the number of moles (n).
This is found by 1.668 g Zn * (1 mol Zn / 65.409 g Zn) * (1 mol H2(g) / 1 mol Zn) = .025501 mol H2 gass. The 1:1 molar ratio of Zn to H2 is shown by your given equation.
Now filling in PV = nrt:
(587.8 mm Hg - 19.83 mm Hg)(1 atm/760 mm Hg)*V = .025501 mol H2 * .0821 L atm/mol K * 295.15 K
V = .8267 L H2(g)
Ideally, you should get a minimum of 6 hours of sleep each night, even as getting 8 or even 9 is much foremost... However that the "minimum" amount of sleep critical is dependent upon what style of duties you desire to participate in in the course of the day, and the way your body works. Distinguishing the minimal amount of sleep indispensable just isn't particular, as this particularly is dependent upon the character. Getting only 4 hours of sleep for a protracted period of time could, however, quite put on down your system, leading to health problem, common fatigue and different health issues..
