Answer:

a. Ca₃(PO₄)₂.

b. 0.010 moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ can we expect to be produced

c. 3.1g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂

d. Percent yield = 93.5%

Explanation:

a. Based on the reaction:

3Ca(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2Na₃PO₄(aq) → Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6NaNO₃(aq)

<em>3 moles of calcium nitrate reacts with 2 moles of sodium phosphate producieng 1 mole of calcium phosphate.</em>

<em />

As you can see, Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is a solid product -(s)-, that means when the reaction occurs the precipitate produced is the solid,

<h3>Ca₃(PO₄)₂</h3><h3 />

b. As 3 moles of calcium nitrate produce 1 mole of calcium phosphate and there are 0.030 moles of calcium nitrate

0.030 moles Ca(NO₃)₂ × (1 mol Ca₃(PO₄)₂ / 3 moles Ca(NO₃)₂) =

<h3>0.010 moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ can we expect to be produced</h3><h3 />

c. As molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is 310.18g/mol, the mass of 0.010 moles (The expected mass) is;

0.010 moles Ca₃(PO₄)₂ × (310.18g / mol) =

<h3>3.1g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂</h3><h3 />

d. The percent yield is defined as 100 times the ratio between the obtained yield (That is 2.9g of precipitate, Ca₃(PO₄)₂) and the expected yield, 3.1g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂:

\frac{2.9g}{3.1g} *100

<h3>Percent yield = 93.5%</h3>

Calculate the molarity of a solution prepared by diluting 7.0 mL of 4.0 M solution to a volume of 30 mL.
Finger [1]

Considering the definition of dilution, the molarity of a solution prepared by diluting 7.0 mL of 4.0 M solution to a volume of 30 mL is 0.93 mL.

<h3>What is diluion</h3>

First of all, you have to know that when it is desired to prepare a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated one, it is called dilution.

Dilution is the process of reducing the concentration of solute in solution, which is accomplished by simply adding more solvent to the solution at the same amount of solute.

In a dilution the amount of solute does not change, but as more solvent is added, the concentration of the solute decreases, as the volume (and weight) of the solution increases.

A dilution is mathematically expressed as:

Ci×Vi = Cf×Vf

where

  • Ci: initial concentration
  • Vi: initial volume
  • Cf: final concentration
  • Vf: final volume

<h3>Molarity of the solution in this case</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • Ci= 4 M
  • Vi= 7 mL
  • Cf= ?
  • Vf= 30 mL

Replacing in the definition of dilution:

4 M× 7 mL= Cf× 30 mL

Solving:

(4 M× 7 mL)÷ 30 mL= Cf

<u><em>Cf= 0.93 mL</em></u>

In summary, the molarity of a solution prepared by diluting 7.0 mL of 4.0 M solution to a volume of 30 mL is 0.93 mL.
