Can each polyatomic ion be treated as a unit when balancing the chemical equation

Yes. You can either treat the entire polyatomic ion as a unit or separate the elements in the polyatomic ion. Pay attention the parentheses and subscripts, though. Those can confuse people a lot. I personally find it easier to just treat it as a whole unit.

2. A sample of neon gas has a volume of 87.6 L at STP. How many moles are present?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

                      3.91 moles of Neon

Explanation:

According to Avogadro's Law, same volume of any gas at standard temperature (273.15 K or O °C) and pressure (1 atm) will occupy same volume. And one mole of any Ideal gas occupies 22.4 dm³ (1 dm³ = 1 L).

Data Given:

                 n = moles = <u>???</u>

                 V = Volume = 87.6 L

Solution:

               As 22.4 L volume is occupied by one mole of gas then the 16.8 L of this gas will contain....

                          = ( 1 mole × 87.6 L) ÷ 22.4 L

                          = 3.91 moles

<h3>2nd Method:</h3>

                     Assuming that the gas is acting ideally, hence, applying ideal gas equation.

                              P V  =  n R T      ∴  R  =  0.08205 L⋅atm⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹

Solving for n,

                              n  =  P V / R T

Putting values,

                              n  =  (1 atm × 87.6 L)/(0.08205 L⋅atm⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹ × 273.15K)

                              n  =  3.91 moles

Result:

          87.6 L of Neon gas will contain 3.91 moles at standard temperature and pressure.

A scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, Na3PO4, for a laboratory experiment. How many grams of Na3PO4
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

83.20 g of Na3PO4

Explanation:

1 mole of Na3PO4 contains 3 moles of Na+.

Mole of Na ion to be prepared = Molarity x volume

                 = 0.700 x 725/1000

                     = 0.5075 mole

If 1 mole of Na3PO4 contains 3 moles of Na ion, then 0.5075 Na ion will be contained in:

           0.5075/3 x 1 = 0.1692 mole of Na3PO4

mole of Na3PO4 = mass/molar mass = 0.1692

Hence, mass of Na3PO4 = 0.1692 x molar mass

                                     = 0.1692 x 163.94

                                        = 83.20 g.

83.20 g of Na3PO4 will be needed.
