Assume that we have this reaction 2H3PO4⇒ P2O5 + 3H2O
and when the rate of reaction is the speed at which the reactants can be changed and are converted into products So, according to our balanced reaction:

The rate of reaction = rate of formation of P2O5
and the rate of this reaction also = 0.5 rates of decomposition of H3PO4
∴ the rate of decomposition of H3PO4 = 2 rates of formation of P2O5
So when the rate of formation P2O5 = 2 x 10^-4 M/s
So the rate of decomposition of H3PO4 = 2 x 2 x 10^-4
= 4 x 10^-4 M/s

Naturally occurring zirconium exists are five isotopes. axe with a mass of 89.905 u(51.45%); Zr with a mass of 90.906 u (11.22%)

Anton [14]

Isotope 1: 89.905 * 51.45 = 4625.61225 / 100 = 46.2561225
Isotope 2: 90.906 * 11.22 = 1019.96532 / 100 = 10.1996532
Isotope 3: 91.905 * 17.15 = 1576.17175 / 100 = 15.7617075
Isotope 4: 93.906 * 17.38 = 1632.08628 / 100 = 16.3208628
Isotope 5: 95.908 * 2.08 = 268.5424 / 100 = 2.685424

46.2561225 + 10.1996532 + 15.7617075 + 16.3208628 + 2.685424 = 91.22377
actual mass Zr = about 91.22

What is the Net Ionic equation for this chemical reaction: FeBr2+Na2S=FeS+2NaBr

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: Fe(aq)+S(aq)=FeS(s)

Explanation: The Sodium and Bromine are spectator ions because they don't react with anything, you can see this by writing the ionic equation like so:

1.) Molecular formula (given): FeBr2 (aq)+Na2S (aq)= FeS(s)+2NaBr(aq)

Each dissolved FeBr2 breaks up into one Fe with a charge of 2+ and two Br with a negative charge. This gives you:

Fe(aq)+ 2Br(aq)+Na2S(aq)=FeS(s)+2NaBr

2.) Now repeat what was shown with the other compounds in the given molecular formula, and pay attention to the states that each ion is in (solid, liquid, aqueous, gas) because this will give you the ionic equation, which from there you can get rid of any ions that don't change amount or state.

3.) Ionic formula: Fe(aq)+ 2Br(aq)+2 Na(aq)+S (aq)=FeS(s)+2 Na(aq)+2Br(aq)

4.)When you've derived a total ionic equation (above), you'll find that some ions appear on both sides of the equation in equal numbers. For example, in this case two Na cations and two Br anions appear on both sides of the total ionic equation. What does this mean? It means these ions don't participate in the chemical reaction. They're present before and after the reaction. Nothing happens to them. So those are removed and you're left with the net ionic: Fe(aq)+S(aq)=FeS(s)

Hope this helps :)
