A sample of magnisium metal containing some `MgO` as impurity was dissolved in 125 " mL of " 0.1 N `H_2SO_4`. The volume of `H_2` evolved at `27.3^@C` and 1 atm was 120.1 mL. The resulting solution was found to be 0.02 N with respect to `H_2SO_4`. Calculate (i) the weight of sample dissolved and (ii) the percentage by weight of Mg in the sample. Neglect any change in the volume of the solution (atomic weight of `Mg=24.3`).
