    2.56 * 10⁻³ mol

    5.17 * 10⁻³ g

    Explanation:

    Given data

    Temperature = 35°C + 273 = 308 K

    Pressure = 725 mmHg

    Volume = 72.0 mL = 0.0720 L

    The vapor pressure of water at 35°C is 42.20 mmHg. The total pressure is equal to the sum of the partial pressures.

    P = pH₂ + pH₂O

    pH₂ = P - pH₂O = 725 mmHg - 42.20 mmHg = 683 mmHg

    pH₂ = 683 mmHg * (1 atm / 760 mmHg) = 0.899 atm

    We can find the moles of H₂ using the ideal gas equation.

    P * V = n * R * T

    0.899 atm * 0.0720 L = n * (0.08206 atm. L/mol. K) * 308 K

    n = 2.56 * 10⁻³ mol

    The molar mass of H₂ is 2.02 g/mol. The mass of H₂ is:

    2.56 * 10⁻³ mol * 2.02 g/mol = 5.17 * 10⁻³ g
