The chemical equation shows iron(III) phosphate reacting with sodium sulfate. 2FePO4 + 3Na2SO4 Fe2(SO4)3 + 2Na3PO4 What is the t

slava [35]

<u>Answer:</u> The theoretical yield of iron(III) sulfate is 26.6 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

Given mass of iron(III) phosphate = 20.00 g

Molar mass of iron(III) phosphate = 150.82 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of iron(III) phosphate}=\frac{20g}{150.82g/mol}=0.133mol$

The given chemical equation follows:

$2FePO_4+3Na_2SO_4\rightarrow Fe_2(SO_4)_3+2Na_3PO_4$

As, sodium sulfate is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, iron(III) phosphate is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of iron(III) phosphate produces 1 mole of iron(III) sulfate

So, 0.133 moles of iron(III) phosphate will produce = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.133=0.0665moles$ of iron(III) sulfate

Now, calculating the mass of iron(III) sulfate from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of iron(III) sulfate = 399.9 g/mol

Moles of iron(III) sulfate = 0.0665 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0665mol=\frac{\text{Mass of iron(III) sulfate}}{399.9g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of iron(III) sulfate}=(0.0665mol\times 399.9g/mol)=26.6g$

Hence, the theoretical yield of iron(III) sulfate is 26.6 grams

At what temperature, would the volume of a gas

PtichkaEL [24]

Explanation:

P1V1 = nRT1

P2V2 = nRT2

Divide one by the other:

P1V1/P2V2 = nRT1/nRT2

From which:

P1V1/P2V2 = T1/T2

(Or P1V1 = P2V2 under isothermal conditions)

Inverting and isolating T2 (final temp)

(P2V2/P1V1)T1 = T2 (Temp in K).

Now P1/P2 = 1

V1/V2 = 1/2

T1 = 273 K, the initial temp.

Therefore, inserting these values into above:

2 x 273 K = T2 = 546 K, or 273 C.

Thus, increasing the temperature to 273 C from 0C doubles its volume, assuming ideal gas behaviour. This result could have been inferred from the fact that the the volume vs temperature line above the boiling temperature of the gas would theoretically have passed through the origin (0 K) which means that a doubling of temperature at any temperature above the bp of the gas, doubles the volume.

From the ideal gas equation:

V = nRT/P or at constant pressure:

V = kT where the constant k = nR/P. Therefore, theoretically, at 0 K the volume is zero. Of course, in practice that would not happen since a very small percentage of the volume would be taken up by the solidified gas.

A solid object has a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL.

Pachacha [2.7K]

The density of a solid object that has a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL is 3.87g/mL.

<h3>How to calculate density?</h3>

Density is the measure of the mass of matter contained by a unit volume. It can be calculated by dividing the mass of the substance by its volume.

According to this question, a solid object is said to have a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL.

1 pound = 453.592 grams

1.62 Ibs is equivalent to 734.82 grams

Density of the solid object = 734.82 grams ÷ 190 mL

Density = 3.87g/mL

Therefore, the density of a solid object that has a mass of 1.62 lb and a volume of 190 mL is 3.87g/mL.
