Solution

And, using standard conditions of P=1atm... and T=298K, we address the Ideal Gas equation ... (at least near standard conditions ...)
PV=nRT...nV=PRT=massmolar massV=PRT
And so ...
density=ρmassV=PRT×molar mass
And thus our working equation... ρH2=PRT×2.016gmol1
=1atm×2.016gmol10.0821LatmKmol×298K0.1gL1
We note that hydrogen gas, as are all elemental gases with any chemistry, is bimolecular, i.e. H2...
