Chemistry

Hydrogen gas is used as a fuel instead of fossil fuels. Storageof hydrogen is a challenge. One avenue of research involveschemical storage such as incorporating hydrogen as part of a metalhydride. In the following reaction sodium borohydride, NaBH4, isused as a means for storing and later generating the hydrogen gasin situ where it is needed as a fuel. Application of heat and useof a catalyst drives the reaction forward. NaBH4(s) + 2 H2O(l) →NaBO2(s) + 4 H2(g) To test the efficiency of the reaction, 0.11 gof sodium borohydride is catalytically decomposed and 244 mL ofhydrogen gas is collected over water at 30.0 °C under anatmospheric pressure of 752 mmHg. Calculate the % yield of thereaction
