Answer : The molarity of calcium ion on the original solution is, 0.131 M

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction is:

Ca(NO_3)_2+K_2CO_3\rightarrow CaCO_3+3KNO_3

When calcium nitrate react with potassium carbonate to give calcium carbonate as a precipitate and potassium nitrate.

First we have to calculate the moles of CaCO_3

\text{Moles of }CaCO_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }CaCO_3}{\text{Molar mass of }CaCO_3}

Given:

Mass of CaCO_3 = 0.524 g

Molar mass of CaCO_3 = 100 g/mol

\text{Moles of }CaCO_3=\frac{0.524}{100g/mol}=0.00524mol

Now we have to calculate the concentration of CaCO_3

\text{Concentration of }CaCO_3=\frac{\text{Moles of }CaCO_3}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.00524mol}{0.040L}=0.131M

Now we have to calculate the concentration of calcium ion.

As, calcium carbonate dissociate to give calcium ion and carbonate ion.

CaCO_3\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+CO_3^{2-}

So,

Concentration of calcium ion = Concentration of CaCO_3 = 0.131 M

Thus, the concentration or molarity of calcium ion on the original solution is, 0.131 M

Which way does equilibrium shift
Natali [406]
You can use Le Chatelier's Principle to describe the equilibrium shift.

Le Chaterlier's Principle states that: "<span>If a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change."

Thus, if you heat up the reaction, the equilibrium shift favors the endothermic reaction. If you increase pressure (if gases are involved), the shift favors the reaction that produces less gaseous products (to counteract pressure) and so on.</span>

Consider the following Reaction.
jeyben [28]

Hey there!:

Molar mass of Mg(OH)2 = 58.33 g/mol


number of moles Mg(OH)2 :

moles of Mg(OH)2 = 30.6 / 58.33 =>  0.5246 moles

Molar mass of H3PO4 =  97.99 g/mol

number of moles H3PO4:

moles of Mg(OH)2 = 63.6 / 97.99 => 0.649 moles

Balanced chemical equation is:


3 Mg(OH)2 + 2 H3PO4 --->  Mg3(PO4)2 + 6 H2O


3 mol of Mg(OH)2 reacts with 2 mol of H3PO4  ,for 0.5246 moles of Mg(OH)2, 0.3498 moles of H3PO4 is required , but we have 0.649 moles of H3PO4, so, Mg(OH)2 is limiting reagent !

Now , we will use Mg(OH)2 in further calculation  .

Molar mass of Mg3(PO4)2 = 262.87 g/mol

According to balanced equation  :

mol of Mg3(PO4)2 formed = (1/3)* moles of Mg(OH)2


= (1/3)*0.5246


= 0.1749 moles of Mg3(PO4)2

use :

mass of Mg3(PO4)2 = number of mol * molar mass


= 0.1749 *  262.87

= 46 g of Mg3(PO4)2

Therefore:

% yield = actual mass * 100 / theoretical mass

% = 34.7 * 100 / 46

% = 3470 / 46

= 75.5%


Hope that helps!
