When magnesium metal and an aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid combine, they produce an aqueous solution of magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Using the equation, Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) arrow MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g), if 24.3 g of Mg and 75.0 g of HCl are allowed to react, calculate the mass of H2 that is produced.

I Got 94.4 g of MgCL2 when you use 24.3g of Mg and 98.9g of MgCl2 when you use 75g of HCl but Idk if Im even doing this right!
The possible answers are 	
75.0 g
	
95.1 g
	
99.3 g
	
104 g
