Gases produced by a chemical reaction can easily be collected over water. To determine the pressure of the dry gas, the vapor pressure of the water at that temperature must be subtracted from the total pressure. 1) Consider the following reaction: \[ \mathrm{Mg}(s)+2 \mathrm{HCl}(a q) \rightarrow \mathrm{MgCl}_{2}(a q)+\mathrm{H}_{2}(g) \] The total pressure of gas collected over water is \( 785.0 \mathrm{mmHg} \) and the temperature is \( 18.5^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) What is the pressure of hydroge gas formed in \( \mathrm{mmHg} \) ? Pressure =
