Zinc phosphate is used as a dental cement. A 50.00-mg sample is broken down into its constituent elements and gives 16.58 mg oxy
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Zn3P2O8

Explanation:

In this particular question, it is necessary to convert the respective masses to percentages. We convert to percentages by placing each mass over the total mass and multiplying by 100%. Since the total is 50mg, conversion to percentage can be done by multiplying the masses by 2 as 100/50 is 2

For Oxygen = 16.58 * 2 = 33.16%

For phosphorus = 8.02 * 2 = 16.04%

For zinc = 25.40 * 2 = 50.80%

We then proceed to divide these percentages by their respective atomic masses. The atomic mass of oxygen, phosphorus and zinc are 16, 31 and 65 respectively.

O = 33.16/16 = 2.0725

P = 16.04/31 = 0.5174

Zn = 50.80/65 = 0.7815

Now, we divide by the smallest value which is that of the phosphorus

O = 2.0725/0.5174 = 4

P = 0.5174/0.5174 = 1

Zn= 0.7815/0.5174 = 1.5

Now, we need to multiply through by 2. This yields: O = 8, P = 2 and Zn = 3

The empirical formula is thus: Zn3P2O8

when 6.25 grams of pure iron are allowed to react with oxygen , a black oxide forms. if the product weighs 8.15 g, what is the e
erik [133]
We are given with the mass of  pure iron that reacts with oxygen to form an oxide which has a given mass as well. the mass of oxygen reacted is 8.15-6.25 g or 1.9 grams. THen we convert the mass of the reactants to moles. Iron is equal to 0.1119 moles and oxygen is equal to 0.1188. We divide each number to the less amount. Hence iron is 1 and oxygen is approx 1. The empirical formula hence is FeO or ferrous oxide or Iron (II) oxide.
