Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) are the main nutrients in plant fertilizers. By industry convention, the numbers

on a label refer to the mass percents of N, P₂O₅, and K₂O, in that order. Calculate the N/P/K ratio of a 30/10/10 fertilizer in terms of moles of each element, and express it as x/y/1.0.

The ratio is  1.07 : 0.128 : 0.106.

What is N/P/K ratio ?

These three numbers form what is called the fertilizer's N-P-K ratio — the proportion of three plant nutrients in order: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). The product's N-P-K numbers reflect each nutrient's percentage by weight.

Given, mass ratio of (Molar mass of N2 =28; Molar mass of PO=78; Molar mass of K2O)=94) is 30/10/10

Therefore the ratio is : 30/28 : 10/78 : 10/94 = 1.07 : 0.128 : 0.106

Mixtures of benzene and cyclohexane exhibit ideal behavior. A solution was created containing 1.5 moles of liquid benzene and 2.
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Vapour pressure of cyclohexane at 50°C is 490torr

Vapour pressure of benzene at 50°C is 90torr

Explanation:

Using Raoult's law, pressure of a solution is defined by the sum of the product sbetween mole fraction of both solvents and pressure of pure solvents.

P_{solution} = X_{A}P^0_{A}+X_{B}P^0_{B}

In the first solution:

X_{cyclohexane}=\frac{2.5mol}{2.5mol+1.5mol} =0.625

X_{benzene}=\frac{1.5mol}{2.5mol+1.5mol} =0.375

340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+0.375P^0_{B} <em>(1)</em>

For the second equation:

X_{cyclohexane}=\frac{3.5mol}{3.5mol+1.5mol} =0.700

X_{benzene}=\frac{1.5mol}{3.5mol+1.5mol} =0.300

370torr = 0.700P^0_{A}+0.300P^0_{B}<em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+0.375(1233.3-2.333P^0_{A})

340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+462.5-0.875P^0_{A}

-122.5torr = -0.250P°A

P^0_{A} = 490 torr

<em>Vapour pressure of cyclohexane at 50°C is 490torr</em>

And for benzene:

370torr = 0.700*490torr+0.300P^0_{B}

P^0_{B}=90torr

<em>Vapour pressure of benzene at 50°C is 90torr</em>

Describe the particle mode of matter. what does the brownian motion tells us about the particles in matter?give other evidence t
svetlana [45]

Answer:

dium (a liquid or a gas). This pattern of motion typically consists of random fluctuations in a particle's position inside a fluid sub-domain, followed by a relocation to another sub-domain. Each relocation is followed by more fluctuations within the new closed volume. This pattern describes a fluid at thermal equilibrium, defined by a given temperature. Within such a fluid, there exists no preferential direction of flow (as in transport phenomena). More specifically, the fluid's overall linear and angular momenta remain null over time. The kinetic energies of the molecular Brownian motions, together with those of molecular rotations and vibrations, sum up to the caloric component of a fluid's internal energy (the Equipartition theorem).

Lithium chloride crystallizes in a face-centered cubic unit cell with chloride ions occupying the lattice points and lithium ion
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

The coordination number of a particular crystal structure arrangement is defined as the number of nearest neighbor atoms or ions surrounding an atom or ion.

We must note that in salts of the type MX, the coordination number of each ion must be equal. The structure of LiCl is built by placing each unit cell next to another such that ions residing in the corner, edge or face sites are shared between adjacent unit cells. The LiCl is in FCC arrangement.

Hence in LiCl, each Li+ ion is surrounded by 6 chloride ions.
