I hope you made a typo and the (MnCl0 you wrote you intended to be (MnCl). Otherwise, where is the oxygen coming from?

Convert g Mn in the reaction to mols.

Use PV = nRT to calculate mols H2.

Use those two numbers to determine the formula. You should obtain MnCl2.

Scratch that answer of MnCl2. It may not be that at all.
