81.875 g of magnesium phosphate Mg₂(PO₄)₃

Explanation:

The chemical formula of magnesium phosphate is Mg₃(PO₄)₂.

molar mass of Mg₃(PO₄)₂ = atomic weight of Mg × 3 + atomic weight of P × 3 + atomic weight of O × 3 × 4

molar mass of Mg₃(PO₄)₂ = 24 × 3 + 31 × 2 + 16 × 2 × 4 = 262 g/mole

Knowing the molar mass of Mg₃(PO₄)₂, we devise the following reasoning:

if in          262 g of Mg₂(PO₄)₃ there are 48 g of Mg

then in     X g  of Mg₂(PO₄)₃ there are 15 g of Mg

X = (262 × 15) / 48 = 81.875 g of Mg₂(PO₄)₃

If the sentence is true, write true. If the sentence is false , replace the underlined word to make the sentence true.
ivann1987 [24]

1. False

Elements bond to form compounds.

Consider that compounds are essentially clumped up atoms. Knowing this, we know that atoms don’t separate, but rather combine in order to make compounds.

2. True

3. False

Atoms cam lose or gain electrons to form ionic bonds.

When at atom doesn’t have enough electrons to become stable, it will either give or take electrons from another atom in order to become stable. However, because of the fact that the atoms become oppositely charge, they attract each other, thus forming an ionic bond

A buffer is a solution that is a mixture of either a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Whe
leva [86]

Answer:

a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution.

b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base.

e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution.

Explanation:

<em>Which of the statements correctly describe the properties of a buffer?</em>

a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. TRUE. The conjugate base neutralizes the excess of hydrogen protons.

b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. TRUE.

c. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. FALSE. This is a basic buffer solution.

d. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. FALSE. The weak acid will react with the hydroxyl ions from the added base.

e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. TRUE. These hydrogen protons will form water.

f. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. FALSE. It will accept hydrogen protons.
