24.42=24420cm3

Explanation:

We are going to use the ideal gas law, which states that

PV=nRT

P is pressure in pascals (Pa)

V is volume in m3

n is the number of moles of the substance

R is the gas constant

T is the temperature in Kelvin (K)

Since we are using atmospheric pressure as units and the gas constant as 0.082Litatmmol1K1, then our volume will be in liters (l).
So, plugging in P=4atm, n=8g2.016g/mol3.97mol, R=0.082, and T=300K, we get

V=nRTP=3.970.082300424.42l=24420cm3 of hydrogen gas (H2).
