How many moles of H2 can you get from 4 moles of Al?

This reaction is:
2 Al + 2 H2O + 2 NaOH = 2 NaAlO2 + 3 H2
From 4 moles of Al 6 moles of hydrogen are obtained.

How can you find the molecular mass of a substance from its mass spectrum?

Obtain the molecular mass by determining the m/z value of the molecular ion peak (rightmost in the spectrum).

What is the pH of 1 liter of an aqueous solution containing 0.125 moles of hydrochloric acid?

0.125 moles HCl/1 liter = 0.125 M HCl
HCl dissociates completely, so [H+] = 0.125 M
pH = -log [H+] = -log 0.125
pH = 0.903

What is the percent composition of chlorine in salt?

By atoms it is 50% sodium and 50% chlorine.

By mass (sodium is 23.0, chlorine is 35.5, salt is 58.5) is 39.3% sodium and 60.7% chlorine.

What is the empirical formula of a compound that contains0.04 moles of sodium 0.04 moles of sulphur and 0.06 moles of oxygen?

Divide all elements by the smallest number of moles (0.04) to get
1Na, 1S and 1.5 O. Next, multiply all by 2 as to obtain all whole numbers, and you arrive at
2Na, 2S and 3 O. So empirical formula will be Na2S2O3.

Why you take 1000cm3 in the formula of molarity when you have to find the no of moles?

It is only a convention; it is more simple to work with a decimal system as in SI.
The old English system of units is obsolete, nonrational and riduculous today.
