The reaction between phosphoric acid and ammonia that produces ammonium phosphate can be written as follows:
3NH3 + H3PO4 ..................> (NH4)3PO4
From the periodic table:
molar mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
molar mass of hydrogen = 1 grams
molar mass of oxygen = 16 grams
molar mass of phosphorus = 30.9 grams
based on this:
molar mass of 3NH3 = 3 (14 + 3(1)) = 51 grams
molar mass of H3PO4 = 3(1) + 30.9 + 4(16) = 97.9 grams
molar mass of (NH4)3PO4 = 3 (14 + 4(1)) + 30.9 + 4(16) = 54 + 30.9 + 64
= 148.9 grams
Therefore, 97.9 grams of phosphoric acid is required to produced 148.9 grams of ammonium phosphate.
Thus, to know the mass of ammonium phosphate produced from 4.9 grams of phosphoric acid, we will simply use cross multiplication as follows:
amount of produced ammonium phosphate = (4.9 x 148.9) / 97.9 = 7.45 g
The thing that governs whether a reaction is exothermic is the energy given out / used up to break / form the bonds in the reaction.
<span>When two substances react, the bonds in those substances first break up, releasing energy, before re-forming in a different way, taking in energy. The nature of the bonds that are broken up and reformed determines whether more energy is given out (exothermic) or taken in (endothermic)</span>
Answer:
chemical and electrical ( and sometimes nucelar)
Explanation:
Use PV=nRT to find V assuming n is one and R= 8.31 then use the answer to find P2
