Lars is balancing equations with his study group. He is unsure about one equation because each member of the study group came up

with a different answer. Which is the proper way to balance the equation Ca(OH)2 + H3PO4 → Ca3(PO4)2 + H2O? Ca(OH)2 + H3PO4 → Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O 3Ca(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 → Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O 3Ca(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 → Ca3(PO4)2 + 3H2O Ca(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 → Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

Answer:

3Ca(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 → Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

Explanation:

This a proper way to balance the equation:

- Count the OH from the base (2)

- Count the H from the acid (3)

We can make 2 molecules of H₂O but we still have one more H

H₃PO₄ → dissociates in → 3H⁺  +  PO₄³⁻

Ca(OH)₂  → dissociates in → Ca²⁺  +  2OH⁻

So, to form the salt, you must have 3 Ca²⁺ to react with 2 (PO₄³⁻) to make global charge of +6/-6

Therefore, if you have 3 Ca in the salt, you may have 3 Ca in the base.

So, if you have 2 phosphate in the salt, you must have 2 PO₄³⁻ in the acid.

Now you have 6 protons in the acid (6H) and 6 (OH) in the base; in conclussion you can make 6 H₂O.

Finally the ballance equation is:

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

Calculate the number of moles of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of aluminum sulfate, al2(so4)3. express the nu
bagirrra123 [75]
<span>To calculate the number of moles of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of aluminum sulfate, al2(so4)3. We will simply inspect the "number" of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms available per one mole of the compound. Here we have Al2(SO4)3, which means that for every mole of aluminum sulfate, there are 2 moles of aluminum, 3 (1 times 3) moles of sulfur, and 12 (4x3) moles of oxygen. Since we have four moles of Al2(SO4)3 given, we simply multiply 4 times the moles present per 1 mole of the compound. So we have 4x2 = 8 moles of Al, 4x3 = 12 moles of sulfur, and 4x12 = 48 moles of oxygen.

So the answer is:
8,12,48

What is the Molarity of a Ca(OH)2 solution if 30.0mL of the solution is neutralized by 26.4mL of 0.25M HCI
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

0.11M

Explanation:

What is the Molarity of a Ca(OH)2 solution if 30.0mL of

the solution is neutralized by 26.4mL of 0.25M HCI solution?

1L (1000 ml) of the HCl contains 0.25 moles of H ion

26.4 ml contains ( 26.4 X0.25/1000) moles of H ion ion

=0.0066 moles H ion

2HCl +Ca (OH)2-----> 2H2O +CaCl2

SO 2 H IONS NEUTRALIZE 1 Ca(OH)2 MOLECULE

00066 moles H ion neutralize 0.0033 moles Ca(OH)2

the 0.0033 moles are distributed over 30 ml, so the concentration of the

Ca(OH)2 IS 0,0033/(30/1000) =0.11 moles/liter or 0.11M
