Answer:

13.7g

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

3Ca(OH)2(s) + 2H3PO4(aq) —> Ca3(PO4)2(aq) + 12H2O(l)

Step 2:

Determination of the masses of Ca(OH)2 and H3PO4 that reacted and the mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced from the balanced equation.

Molar mass of Ca(OH)2 = 40 + 2(16 + 1) = 74g/mol

Mass of Ca(OH)2 from the balanced equation = 3 x 74 = 222g

Molar mass of H3PO4 = (3x1) + 31 + (16x4) = 98g/mol

Mass of H3PO4 from the balanced equation = 2 x 98 = 196g

Molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = (40x3) + 2[31 + (16x4)]

= 120 + 2[95] = 310g/mol

Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 from the balanced equation = 1 x 310 = 310g.

From the balanced equation above,

222g of Ca(OH)2 reacted with 196g of H3PO4 to produce 310g of Ca3(PO4)2.

Step 3:

Determination of the limiting reactant.

This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

222g of Ca(OH)2 reacted with 196g of H3PO4.

Therefore, 9.8g of Ca(OH)2 will react with = (9.8 x 196)/222 = 8.65g of H3PO4

From the above illustration, we can see that only 8.65g of H3PO4 out 9.8g given reacted completely with 9.8g of Ca(OH)2. Therefore, Ca(OH)2 is the limiting reactant and H3PO4 is the excess reactant.

Step 4:

Determination of the maximum mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced from reaction.

In this case, the limiting reactant will be used as all of it is used up in the reaction.

The limiting reactant is Ca(OH)2 and maximum mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

222g of Ca(OH)2 reacted to produce 310g of Ca3(PO4)2.

Therefore, 9.8g of Ca(OH)2 will react to produce = (9.8 x 310)/222 = 13.7g of Ca3(PO4)2.

Therefore, the maximum mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced is 13.7g

why does ocean water found near the poles often have a higher leaves of salinity than ocean water found near the equator
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Water near the poles often have higher salinity because Cold polar air cools the water and lowers its temperature, increasing its salinity. Fresh water freezes out of seawater to become sea ice, which also increases the salinity of the remaining water.

Moles of gas = 0.369

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

P = 2 atm

V = 5.3 L

T = 350 L

Required

moles of gas

Solution

Ideal gas Law

\tt n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}\\\\n=\dfrac{2\times 5.3}{0.082\times 350}\\\\n=0.369

Avogadro's law : at the same temperature and pressure, the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles  

moles of O₂ = 45% x 0.369 = 0.166

moles of Ar = 12% x 0.369 = 0.044

moles of N = 43% x 0.369 = 0.159

How many major reservoirs does carbon move between?<br> A. 3<br> B. 4<br> C. 5<br> D. 2
Irina-Kira [14]
<span>Carbon can also bond with other four atoms because of its outer shell (valence shell) that has four electrons. This is the reason why organic molecules can be so large because of this bonding. Suppose you have a compound of CCl4. You know that chlorine can only share 1 electron because 7 of its electrons are filled. Also, in carbon, it can only share 4 electrons because 4 of it are already filled. That is why carbon needs four chlorine to form CCl4. The answer is letter <u>B.</u></span>
