Moles of phosphorous in 15-35-15 fertilizer in 10g

Chemistry
1 answer:
guapka [62]4 years ago
6 0

<span>The composition of a fertilizer is usually express in NPK number. NPK number is in terms of Percent by mass of the said element which are Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium. A 15-35-15 fertilizer has 15% Nitrogen, 35% Phosphorous, and 15% Potassium by mass. If you have 10 g of this fertilizer, to get the number of moles of phosphorus, you multiply the mass by 35%, which is equal to 10*0.35 or 3.5 g phosphorus. Then you divide the calculated mass of phosphorous by its molar mass which is 30.97 g/mol. Therefore, you have 3.5/30.97 which is equal to 0.1130 mol Phosphorus. This is the amount of Phosphorus in moles in the fertilizer.</span>

In the determination of iron in an ore, the ore (mostly Fe2O3) is first dissolved in HCl(aq). A slight excess of Sn2 is added to
katovenus [111]

Answer:

2Fe⁺³ + Sn₂ → 2Fe⁺² + 2Sn⁺²

Explanation:

A redox reaction occurs between a compound that loses electrons and others that gain an electron. The first is being oxidized, and the other is being reduced.

In this situation, in the compound Fe₂O₃, the iron, has an oxidation number equal to +3, so it's Fe⁺³, and it will gain 1 electron to become Fe⁺². Because it was first dissolved in HCl, we must use the ion at the equation. The other compound Sn₂ will be oxidized to Sn⁺², so it will need to lose 2 electrons.

So, it will be necessary 2 Fe⁺³ for this reaction happen:

2Fe⁺³ + Sn₂ → 2Fe⁺² + 2Sn⁺²

Explain three factors that can affect the size of a line in a spectrum.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:For atoms and molecules, the width of spectral lines is governed mainly by the broadening of the energy levels of the atoms or molecules during interactions with surrounding particles and by the broadening of the spectral lines as a result of the Doppler effect.

Answer:

A. 1 = 3 - 2

Explanation:

What defines an expression?

expression - An expression is a sentence with a minimum of two numbers and at least one math operation. This math operation can be addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
