Answer:

\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus=20.00\ \%

Explanation:

The molecular formula of the monohydrate formed = MgNH_4PO_4.H_2O

The molecular mass of the monohydrate formed = Mass_{Mg}+Mass_{N}+6\times Mass_{H}+5\times Mass_O

So, Mass = 24 + 14 + 6 × 1 + 5 × 16 = 155 g

Mass of phosphorus = 31 g

Thus,

\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus =\frac{Mass_{phosphorus}}{Total\ mass}\times 100

\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus=\frac{31}{155}\times 100

\%\ Composition\ of\ phosphorus=20.00\ \%

What is the osmotic pressure of a 100 ml of toluene solution that contains a total of 0.005 moles of a polymer dissolved in it a
allsm [11]

Osmotic pressure is the pressure that would have to be applied to a pure solvent to prevent it from passing into a given solution by osmosis.

That can be mathematical computed from the expression:

Osmotic pressure=C×R×T

Where,

C= Concentration

R=Gas constant

T=Temperature

Concentration=Number of moles of solute/Volume(L)

=0.005*1000/100

=0.05

R= 0.08206 atm L/mol K

T=25+273

=298

Osmotic pressure= 0.05×0.08206×298

=1.2 atm
