In the formula for water (H2O) what does the subscript 2 indicate?

1 answer:

8 0

The 2 indicates the amount of hydrogen there is. In this case there are two atoms of hydrogen. The subscript will correspond to the “letter” (element symbol) right before it.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

7.5 g

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

Ammonium phosphate ((NH₄)₃PO₄) is an important ingredient in many fertilizers. It can be made by reacting phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) with ammonia (NH₃). What mass of ammonium phosphate is produced by the reaction of 4.9 g of phosphoric acid? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

H₃PO₄ + 3 NH₃ ⇒ (NH₄)₃PO₄

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 4.9 g of phosphoric acid

The molar mass of phosphoric acid is 98.00 g/mol.

$4.9 g \times \frac{1mol}{98.00g} = 0.050mol$

Step 3: Calculate the moles of ammonium phosphate produced from 0.050 moles of phosphoric acid

The molar ratio of H₃PO₄ to (NH₄)₃PO₄ is 1:1. The moles of (NH₄)₃PO₄ produced are 1/1 × 0.050 mol = 0.050 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.050 moles of ammonium phosphate

The molar mass of ammonium phosphate is 149.09 g/mol.

$0.050mol \times \frac{149.09 g}{mol} = 7.5 g$

Lead(II) nitrate is added slowly to a solution that is 0.0800 M in Cl− ions. Calculate the concentration of Pb2+ ions (in mol /

barxatty [35]

Answer:

$[Pb^{2+}]=3.9 \times 10^{-2}M$

this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation

Explanation:

$PbCl_2$ ⇄ $Pb^{2+}+2Cl^-$

Precipitation starts when ionic product is greater than solubility product.

Ip>Ksp

Precipitation starts only when solution is supersaturated because solution become supersaturated then it does not stay in this form and precipitation starts itself only solution become saturated.

This usually happens when two solutions containing separate sources of cation and anion are mixed together and here also we are mixing lead (||)nitrate solution(source of lead(||)) into the Cl- solution.

$Ip=[Pb^{2}][2Cl^-]^2=Ksp$

$Ksp=2.4\times 10^{-4}$

lets solubility=S

$[Pb^{2+}] = S$

$[Cl^-]=2S$

$Ksp=[Pb^{2+}]\times [Cl^-]^2$

$Ksp=S \times (2S)^2$

$Ksp=4S^3$

$S=\sqrt[3]{\frac{Ksp}{4} }$

$S=3.9\times 10^{-2}$

$[Pb^{2+}]=3.9 \times 10^{-2}M$ this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation

An unknown compound has the following chemical formula:

Softa [21]

Answer:

Formula of the compound = $P_2O_5$

Explanation:

Given,

No. of mole of O = 8.20 mol

No. of mole of P = 3.30 mol

Chemical formula = $P_2O_x$

Ratio of P and O = $\frac{2}{x}$

$\frac{2}{x} =\frac{3.3}{8.20} \\x \times 3.3 = 8.20 \times 2\\x = \frac{8.20 \times 2}{3.3} \\x=4.9969\\ = 5$

formula of the compound = $P_2O_5$

Need Help On This...Thanks

ollegr [7]

13) "..From the ___" My guess would be Sun since it says solar later in the question. Then an example of solar energy would be flashlights, thermostats (etc..)

14) Mechanical

16) Conductors, (Ex. copper, metal)

17) Insulators, most non metallic materials (Ex. cloth, or rubber, plastic)

18) Electrocution
