What is the theoretical yield of calcium phosphate?

Chemistry

I'm going to assume that the other reactant is sodium phosphate(you did not indicate this)
so i'm guessing that the reaction did this
CaCL2 + Na3(PO4) ------------> Ca3(PO4)2 + NaCl
(since this reaction was done in water(aqueous solutions involved) the NaCl would be in the solution and thus the filtrate of the product so it won't influence the mass of the calcium phosphate product)

so then you need to write the balanced equation for this reaction(lets assume you can do this)
3 CaCL2 + 2 Na3(PO4) ------------> Ca3(PO4)2 + 6 NaCl

so in theoretical analysis 3 moles of calcium chloride is involved in the production of 1 mole of calcium phosphate

in terms of molar mass equivalents 3 molesw of calcium chloride weigh = 3 x (40 + 71)g/mol = 333g
1 mole of calcium phosphate = 310 g
so if you only have 0.513 g of calcium chloride then this would calculate to get the mass of calcium phosphate
mass = [0.513 / 333] x 310 g = 0.477grams

your actual yield is what you massed when you performed the lab. hope that helped.

The universe comes into existence is first
The first neutral atoms form is second
The universe begins expanding is third
Gases form that will later go to shape stars and galaxies is fourth
Atomic nuclei form is last

I'm almost certain that is correct. Do not take my word for this.

An average bushel of apples has a mass of 10 kg and contains 5 dozen apples.

Alina [70]

Answer:

Average mass of 6 apple = 1 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Average mass of 5 dozen apple = 10 kg

Find:

Average mass of 6 apple

Computation:

Average mass of 6 apple = [Average mass of 1 apple] x [6 apple]

Average mass of 6 apple = [10/(12 x 5)] x [6]

Average mass of 6 apple = 1 kg

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coeffici

Brut [27]

Question:

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K

Answer:

The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.

Explanation:

Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

$E=E_{0}-0.0514 \mathrm{V} \ln \gamma$

As we know that $E_{0}$ = 0.22 V and E = 0.342 V, the equation will become

$0.342 V+0.0514 V \ln (0.124)=0.22 V-0.0514 V \ln \gamma$

$0.342 V-0.222 V=-0.0514 V(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)$

$0.12 \mathrm{V}=-0.0514 \mathrm{V}(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)$

$\frac{0.12}{0.0514}=-\ln (0.124 \gamma)$

$-2.3346=\ln (0.124 \gamma)$

$e^{-2.3346}=0.124 \gamma$

$0.0968=0.124 \gamma$

$\gamma=\frac{0.0968}{0.124}=0.78$

So, the mean activity coefficient is 0.78.

consider a 1000-ml graduated cylinder with marks every 100 ml. a student records the volume of liquid in the cylinder as 750 ml.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

The 1000-ml graduated cylinder with marks every 100 ml has least count of 100 ml . It means it can not measure a volume less than 100 ml . It can also measure volume in the integral multiple of 100 ml like 200 ml , 300 ml , 400 ml etc perfectly . All these have significant figure of one .

It can not measure volume like 150 , 250 , 255 , 760 etc because these measurements are not the integral multiple of 100 . 750 is not a integral multiple of 100 so it can not measure volume of 750 ml.
