A-level / AP / IB (CBSE class 11): magnesium ribbon and excess dilute HCl in a conical flask; the hydrogen goes through a delivery tube into an inverted burette full of water, clamped in a trough. Room temperature and pressure are recorded.

## What the template shows

- Measure the volume of hydrogen from a weighed piece of magnesium
- One-hole bung
- Drop the Mg into the acid and put the bung in at once
- Mg ribbon + excess dilute HCl
- About 0.04 g of cleaned, weighed Mg in 25 cm³ of 1 mol dm⁻³ HCl. Mg + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂. No flames nearby
- Inverted burette
- Full of water at the start. The scale reads upside down: volume of H₂ = start reading − end reading
- Record the conditions
- Room temperature and pressure. Molar volume = V(H₂) ÷ n(Mg), about 24 dm³ mol⁻¹ at room temperature and pressure; AP: subtract the water vapour pressure first
- Trough of water
- A gas syringe in place of the burette reads the volume directly
- Reaction setup

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Molar volume of a gas template free?

You can preview the Molar volume of a gas template here and open and edit it in MolDraw for free. Downloading or exporting it is part of MolDraw Pro, together with the other premium templates.

### Can I edit the Molar volume of a gas template?

Yes. It opens as an ordinary MolDraw drawing, so every structure, arrow, label and colour can be changed, and you can add your own content around it.

### Is the chemistry checked?

Every structure is checked with RDKit and every curly arrow passes MolDraw’s electron-flow audit. The sources used are listed on this page.

### Can I edit the glassware?

Yes. Every piece of glassware is a MolDraw apparatus object: move, resize, recolour the liquid or swap a piece and the joints stay connected.
