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)

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?
Do you mean 44.8L of Zn?
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.
The answer is 5.83g
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
