What percent of Zn3(PO4)2 is zinc?

Chemistry
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]4 years ago
5 0

16.94 % Zn

Explanation:

First we need the molar weight of the  Zn₃(PO₄)₂:

molar weight of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ = atomic weight of Zn × 3 + atomic weight of P × 2 + atomic weight of O × 4 × 2

molar weight of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ = 65.4 × 3 + 31 × 2 + 16 × 4 × 2 = 386 g/moles

Taking in account weight of 1 mole of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ we devise the following reasoning:

if         386 g of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ contains 65.4 g of Zn

then    100 g of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ contains X g of Zn

X = (100 × 65.4) / 386 = 16.94 % Zn

10) How many grams are there in 1.00 x 10^24 molecules of BC13?
lana66690 [7]

194.5 g of BCl₃ is present in 1 × 10²⁴ molecules of BCl₃.

Explanation:

In order to convert the given number of molecules of BCl₃ to grams, first we have to convert the molecules to moles.

It is known that 1 moles of any element has 6.022×10²³ molecules.

Then 1 molecule will have \frac{1}{6.022*10^{23} } moles.

So 1*10^{24} molecules = \frac{1*10^{24} }{6.022*10^{23} } =1.66 moles

Thus, 1.66 moles are included in BCl₃.

Then in order to convert it from moles to grams, we have to multiply it with the molecular mass of the compound.

As it is known as 1 mole contains molecular mass of the compound.

As the molecular mass of BCl₃ will be

Molecular mass of BCl_{3}= Mass of Boron + (3*Mass of chlorine)

Mass of boron is 10.811 g and the mass of chlorine is 35.453 g.

Molar mass of BCl₃ = 10.811+(3×35.453)=117.17 g.

grams of BCl_{3}=Molar mass of BCl_{3}*Number of moles

grams of BCl_{3}=117.17*1.66=194.5 g

So, 194.5 g of BCl₃ is present in 1 × 10²⁴ molecules of BCl₃.
