As we learnt in

Number of Moles of a gas at STP -

no of moles of a gas at STP= given volume of gas / 22.4 liter

-

 

 BCl_{3}+\frac{3}{2}H_{2}\rightarrow B+3HCl

                                   \frac{21.6}{10.8}=2

\therefore\ \;    1 Mole B requires \frac{3}{2} Mole H2

\because    2 Mole B requires 2\times\frac{3}{2}=3 Moles\ of\ H_{2}

Volume of H2 at STP = 22.4\times 3=67.2L
