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

The image below shows two nitrogen atoms. For these two atoms to form a stable molecule, N2, how many electrons would have to be
maxonik [38]
There are six electrons in the covalent bonds.

Two N atoms would be :N:· + ·:N:
An N₂ molecule would be :N:::N: or :N≡N:
This gives each N atom an octet of eight electrons in its valence shell.

7nadin3 [17]
The part of the atom that is involved in chemical changes is A. electron. The electrons that are in the most outer shells are called valence electrons which are easily removed or shared to form bonds. Valence electrons are related to the number of valence electrons

Why increasing the temperature of a gas would increase the volume of its container in gas law?
Zarrin [17]

When the amount of gas in a container is increased, the volume increases. Lussac's law states that the pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.
