Ammonium phosphate is an important ingredient in many solid fertilizers. It can be made by reacting aqueous phosphoric acid with

ankoles [38]

Answer:

$n_{NH_3}=0.18molNH_3$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

$H_3PO_4(aq)+3NH_3(l)\rightarrow (NH_4)_3PO_4$

In such a way, considering the 3 to 1 molar relationship between ammonia and ammonium phosphate, the moles of ammonia result:

$n_{NH_3}=0.060mol(NH_4)_3PO_4*\frac{3molNH_3}{1mol(NH_4)_3PO_4}\\n_{NH_3}=0.18molNH_3$

Best regards.

A gas has an initial volume of 455 mL at 105ºC and a final volume of 235 mL. What is its final temperature in Celsius degrees?

Oksana_A [137]

Hello!

To solve this problem we're going to use the Charles' Law. This Law describes the relationship between Volume and Temperature in an ideal gas. Applying this law we have the following equation:

$\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2} \\ \\ T2= \frac{V2*T1}{V1}= \frac{235 mL * 105 ^{\circ}C }{455 mL}=54,23 ^{\circ}C$

So, the final temperature is 54,23 °C

Have a nice day!

Magnesium reacts with a certain element to form a compound with the general formula MgX. What would the most likely formula be f

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:K2X

Explanation: Valency can be defined as the combining power of an element. It is the valency that dictates the value an element will have when writing a chemical formula for its compound.

MgX is a compound of magnesium and an element X. The valency of magnesium in most of its compound is +2. Now for the 2 to have been absent in the chemical formula, this shows that the element X itself have a valency if -2 for the valencies of both to have canceled out.

Now considering the element potassium, it is an alkaline metal belonging to group 1 of the periodic table. Hence, it is expected that it has a valency of +1

Forming a compound with element X means there would be an exchange of valencies between the two. We have established that x has a valency of -2. The formula of the compound thus formed by exchanging the valencies of both element would be K2X

What is the empirical formula for a substance that is composed of 40.66% carbon, 8.53% Hydrogen,23.72% Nitrogen, and 27.09% Oxyg

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA OF THE SUBSTANCE IS C2H5NO

Explanation:

The steps involved in calculating the empirical formula of this substance in shown in the table below:

Element Carbon Hydrogen Nitrogen Oxygen

1. % Composition 40.66 8.53 23.72 27.09

2. Mole ratio =

%mass/ atomic mass 40.66/12 8.53/1 23.72/14 27.09/16

= 3.3883 8.53 1,6943 1.6931

3. Divide by smallest

value (0.6931) 3.3883/1.6931 8.53/1.6931 1.6943/1.6931 1.6931/1.6931

= 2.001 5.038 1.0007 1

4. Whole number ratio 2 5 1 1

The empirical formula = C2H5NO
