Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, formed from the reaction of phosphoric acid with ammonia, is used as a crop fertilizer as well as

Tema [17]

Answer:

a)The mass percentages of nitrogen and phosphorus in the compound is 24.34% and 26.95% respectively.

b) 14.78 grams ammonia is incorporated into 100. g of compound.

Explanation:

a) Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate that is $NH_6PO_4$ .

Molecular mass of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate = M

M = 115 g/mol

Percentage of an element in a compound:

$\frac{\text{Number of atoms of element}\times \text{Atomic mass of element}}{\text{molecular mass of element}}\times 100$

Percentage of nitrogen:

$\frac{1\times 28 g/mol}{115 g/mol}\times 100=24.34\%$

Percentage of phosphorus:

$\frac{1\times 31g/mol}{115 g/mol}\times 100=26.95\%$

b) Percentage of ammonia in 1 molecule of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate.

Molar mass of ammonia = 17 g/mol

$\%=\frac{17 g/mol}{115 g/mol}\times 100=14.78\%$

Amount of ammonia in 100 grams of compound:

14.78% of 100 g of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate:

$\frac{14.78}{100}\times 100 g=14.78 g$

14.78 grams ammonia is incorporated into 100. g of compound.

What is the reaction scheme for the experiment of synthesis of methyl salicylate

soldier1979 [14.2K]

The methyl salicylate (wintergreen oil) is the methyl ester of salicylic acid.

Methyl salicylate is produced by esterifying salicylic acid with methanol, the reaction scheme is attached to this answer. In the past, it was commonly distilled from the twigs of Betula lenta (sweet birch) and Gaultheria procumbens (eastern teaberry or wintergreen).
