The first option: the basic unit of the nervous system
<u>Given:</u>
Mass of calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2) = 96.1 g
<u>To determine:</u>
Theoretical yield of calcium phosphate, Ca3(PO4)2
<u>Explanation:</u>
Balanced Chemical reaction-
3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Na3PO4 → 6NaNO3 + Ca3(PO4)2
Based on the reaction stoichiometry:
3 moles of Ca(NO3)2 produces 1 mole of Ca3(PO4)2
Now,
Given mass of Ca(NO3)2 = 96.1 g
Molar mass of Ca(NO3)2 = 164 g/mol
# moles of ca(NO3)2 = 96.1/164 = 0.5859 moles
Therefore, # moles of Ca3(PO4)2 produced = 0.0589 * 1/3 = 0.0196 moles
Molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = 310 g/mol
Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced = 0.0196 * 310 = 6.076 g
Ans: Theoretical yield of Ca3(PO4)2 = 6.08 g
Experiments test the scientists' ideas.
Find the number of moles
C = n / V
C(Concentration) = 0.30 moles / L
V ( Volume) = 2 L
n = ??
n = C * V
n = 0.30 mol / L * 2 L
n = 0.60 mol
Find the molar mass
2Na = 23 * 2 = 46 grams
1S = 32 * 1 = 32 grams
O4 = 16 * 4 = 64 grams
Total = 142 grams / mol
Find the mass
n = given mass / molar mass
n = 0.06 mol
molar Mass = 142 grams / mol
given mass = ???
given mass = molar mass * mols
given mass = 142 * 0.6
given mass = 85.2 grams.
85.2 are in a 2 L solution that has a concentration of 0.6 mol/L
