How many grams of zinc metal are required to produce 2.00 L of hydrogen gas at STP
according to the chemical equation shown below?
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
according to the chemical equation shown below?
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)

22.4 Mol/L at STP means 44.8 moles of H2
Each mole of Zn produces one mole of H2, so you need 44.8 moles of Zn.
How many grams is that?

when I do m=M*n
I get a really high Number which I don't think is right.

It isn't. That's 22.4 L/mol and not 22.4 mols/L. So you want 2/22.4 = ? mols H2 produced.

1 mol of any gas occupies 22.4L of space at STP.
2L of H2 spread in 22.4L of space =2/22= .089molH2
According to the equation, 1 mol H2 is produced from 1 mol of Zn. .089molH2 * 65.38gZn = 5.8gZn
