In the apparatus shown, a piece of magnesium ribbon reacts with excess hydrochloric acid. The hydrogen gas produced is collected over water at \(25^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and atmospheric pressure of \(760\ \text{mm\,Hg}\). The water vapour pressure at this temperature is \(23.8\ \text{mm\,Hg}\). The volume of gas collected is \(0.845\ \text{L}\). Assuming the reaction goes to completion, calculate the mass of magnesium that reacted. (Molar mass of Mg = 24.305 g mol⁻¹, R = 0.0821 L·atm·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹).
