Answer:

109.56g

Explanation:

H3PO4 + Ca(OH)2 → H2O + Ca3(PO4)2

The balanced equation is given as;

3Ca(OH)2 + 2(H3PO4) => Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

Molar mass of Ca(OH)2 = 74.092g/mol

But Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 78.5 / 74.092 = 1.0595 mol

From the reaction above,

3 mol of Ca(OH)2 produces 1 mol of Ca3(PO4)2.

1.0595 mo would produce x?

3 = 1

1.0595 = x

x = 1.0595 / 3 = 0.3532mol of Ca3(PO4)2

Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = Number of moles * Molar mass = 0.3532 * 310.18 = 109.56g

Hello,

You balanced the equation and then you have to set up what is called a psychometric equation for each reactant so that you get the same unit for each in order to compare the two. so for (calcium hydroxide) = 78.5 g ÷ (40.1 + 32 + 2) = 1.0593 mol * Note: I just broke it down in my own science way..u can just get the molar mass of calcium hydroxide which is approx 74 g/mol

Hope this helps

Nitric acid and nitrogen monoxide react to form nitrogen dioxide and water, like this: At a certain temperature, a chemist finds

poizon [28]

Answer:

K = 3.3

Explanation:

Nitric acid, HNO3, reacts with nitrogen monoxide, NO, to produce nitrogen dioxide, NO2 and water H2O as follows:

2HNO3(g) + NO(g) → 3NO2(g) + H2O(g)

Where equilibrium constant, K, is:

K = [NO2]³[H2O] / [HNO3]²[NO]

[] is the molar concentration of each species at equilibrium.

To solve this question we need to find molarity of each gas and replace these in the equation as follows:

[NO2] -Molar mass NO2-46.0g/mol-

18.6g * (1mol/46.0g) = 0.404mol / 7.7L = 0.0525M

[H2O] -Molar mass:18.01g/mol-

236.7g * (1mol/18.01g) = 13.14 moles / 7.7L = 1.707M

[HNO3] -Molar mass:53.01g/mol-

16.2g * (1mol/53.01g) = 0.3056 moles / 7.7L = 0.0397M

[NO] -Molar mass: 30.0g/mol-

11.0g * (1mol/30.0g) = 0.367 moles / 7.7L = 0.0476M

Replacing:

K = [NO2]³[H2O] / [HNO3]²[NO]

K = [0.0525M]³[1.707M] / [0.0397M]²[0.0476M]

A chemical reaction produces formaldehyde, with a chemical formula of CH2O. Carbon is in Group 4A, oxygen is in Group 6A, and hy

Dahasolnce [82]

This problem is providing a comparison on the atoms forming formaldehyde, CH₂O, in terms of the groups they are in, C in group 4A, O in group 6A and H in group 1A, and it is asking for a description about the bonds once they are bonded in a formal Lewis dot structure.

In such a way, the attached file shows the Lewis dot structure, in which we can find two bonds between the two hydrogen atoms and the carbon one, and also, a double bond between carbon and oxygen.

The aforementioned is explained by bearing to mind the concept of octet, which states that elements in groups 4A, 5A, 6A and 7A are able to complete 8 valence electrons after bonding.

Thus, since carbon is in group 4A we infer it needs 4 more electrons to complete the octet, and that is achieved due to the 4 bonds it is having with the two hydrogen atoms and double bond with the oxygen atom.

In addition, since oxygen is in group 6A, we infer it needs two more electrons to complete its octet, which is attained via the double bond it has with the carbon atom. For hydrogen, however, it can complete one bond at maximum, because it is in group 1A, which means it can complete two valence electrons after bonding.
