Magnesium Peroxydisulphate with formula of MgS₂O₈.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The question clearly stands on the concept of molarity and atomic weights.

The atomic weight of magnesium = 24.

The atomic weight of sulphur = 32.

The atomic weight of oxygen = 16.

The amount of magnesium present = 0.248 g

The amount of sulphur present = 0.665 g.

The amount of oxygen present = 1.31g.

So, moles of magnesium present = 0.01 moles.

Moles of sulphur present = 0.02 moles.

Moles of oxygen present = 0.08 moles.

So, mole ratio of the compound as magnesium : sulphur : oxygen = 1:2:8.

So the compound is Magnesium Peroxydisulphate with formula of MgS₂O₈.

In finding the molarity of a solution, we use the following formula:

$M=moles soluteL solution$

What is Molarity?

The number of moles of the solute is calculated by dividing the mass of the solute by its molar mass.

<h3 />

The molar mass of NH4NO3 and (NH4)3PO4 are 80.043 g/mol and 149.0867 g/mol, respectively.

$molesNH+4inNH4NO3=5.66 g80.043 g/mol×1molNH+41molNH4NO3=0.0707 mol$

$molesNH+4in(NH4)3PO4=4.42 g149.0867 g/mol×3molNH+41mol(NH4)3PO4=0.0889 mol$

$total molesNH+4=0.0707 mol+0.0889 mol=0.1596 mol$

$molesPO3−4in(NH4)3PO4=4.42 g149.0867 g/mol×1molPO3−41mol(NH4)3PO4=0.0296 mol$

$[NH+4]=0.1596 mol20.0 L=7.98×10−3 M NH+4$

$[PO3−4]=0.0296 mol20.0 L=1.48×10−3 M PO3−4$

Therefore, $[PO3−4]\\$ has a molarity of $1.48×10−3 M PO3−$
