Hey there!:
Molar mass of Mg(OH)2 = 58.33 g/mol
number of moles Mg(OH)2 :
moles of Mg(OH)2 = 30.6 / 58.33 => 0.5246 moles
Molar mass of H3PO4 = 97.99 g/mol
number of moles H3PO4:
moles of Mg(OH)2 = 63.6 / 97.99 => 0.649 moles
Balanced chemical equation is:
3 Mg(OH)2 + 2 H3PO4 ---> Mg3(PO4)2 + 6 H2O
3 mol of Mg(OH)2 reacts with 2 mol of H3PO4 ,for 0.5246 moles of Mg(OH)2, 0.3498 moles of H3PO4 is required , but we have 0.649 moles of H3PO4, so, Mg(OH)2 is limiting reagent !
Now , we will use Mg(OH)2 in further calculation .
Molar mass of Mg3(PO4)2 = 262.87 g/mol
According to balanced equation :
mol of Mg3(PO4)2 formed = (1/3)* moles of Mg(OH)2
= (1/3)*0.5246
= 0.1749 moles of Mg3(PO4)2
use :
mass of Mg3(PO4)2 = number of mol * molar mass
= 0.1749 * 262.87
= 46 g of Mg3(PO4)2
Therefore:
% yield = actual mass * 100 / theoretical mass
% = 34.7 * 100 / 46
% = 3470 / 46
= 75.5%
Hope that helps!
Having resources? i guess...
maybe it is critical thinking?
The ingredients that is important in making plastics is natural gas plant liquids.
Natural gas liquids (NGLs) are components of natural gas which are separated from the gas state in the form of liquids. They many applications including; plastic production, inputs for petrochemical plants, they are also burned for space heat and cooking, and can also be blended into vehicle fuel.
In the manufacturing of plastics, come components of NGLs are used. And for this case, ethane. Ethane is used in the production of ethylene which are passed through pressure and catalyst to be turned to plastics like polythene.
The reason why they are mostly used in the manufacturing plastics than other resources like crude oil is that it is much cleaner.
