Moles of ca3(po4)2 = 23.7 / 310.17 = 0.076
moles of (PO4)3- = 0.076 x 2 = 0.152
now, no. of ions = 0.152 x 6.022 x 10^{23}
= 9.2 x 10^{22}
To determine the temperature of the gas, we need to assume ideal gas to use the equation PV=nRT where P represents the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, T is the temperature and R is the universal gas constant. We calculate as follows:
PV = nRT
T = PV / nR
T = (1.26 atm) ( 208 L ) / 0.08205 L-atm/mol-K ( 9.95 mol )
T = 321.02 K
Hope this answers the question.
A pH of 2 indicates a acid
The balanced reaction is as follows;
BiCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ --> 2NaCl + BiSO₄
this is a double displacement reaction
the oxidation number of Bi is +2 in both BiCl₂ and BiSO₄
oxidation number of Cl is -1 in both BiCl₂ and NaCl
oxidation number of Na is +1 in both Na₂SO₄ and NaCl
oxidation numbers of elements in SO₄²⁻ remains the same in both compounds.Therefore the oxidation state in any of the elements in the reaction doesn't change. Neither of the elements show an increase or decrease in the oxidation numbers .
Answer for this question is no element decreases its oxidation number.
