Help with some chem-physical calculations


Hello,
I have a little problem here, so I need help. I need to know, how do I calculate mass of H2 using density, pressure (at 20°C) and volume. I also need to know electrochemical equivalent(A) for H2.
Thank you very much, guys :)

Thank you very much! And now - do you know the electrochemical equivalent for H2? Because my problem involves electrolysis :)

EDIT: I found it! Thank you very much, mate ;)

Look up constant of Faraday. One mole of electrons is a charge of Faraday constant amount of charge, measured in Coulomb. A current of 1 ampere is a flow of charge, equal to 1 Coulomb per second. Now you should be able to compute the time needed to make 1 mole of H2 if you do electrolysis with a certain current.
