Answer:
15.4 g of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ are produced
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of zinc phosphate formed = ?
Volume of zinc nitrate = 48.1 mL (0.05 L)
Molarity of zinc nitrate = 2.18 M
Solution:
Chemical equation:
3Zn(NO₃)₂ + 2K₃PO₄ → Zn₃(PO₄)₂ + 6KNO₃
Moles of zinc nitrate:
Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter
Number of moles = 2.18 M × 0.05 L
Number of moles = 0.109 mol
Now we will compare the moles of zinc phosphate with zinc nitrate from balanced chemical equation:
Zn(NO₃)₂ : Zn₃(PO₄)₂
3 : 1
0.109 : 1/3×0.109 = 0.04 mol
0.04 moles of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ are produced.
Mass of Zn₃(PO₄)₂:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.04 mol × 386.1 g/mol
Mass = 15.4 g
This is heated until evaporation occurs and sugar crystals are precipitated. This is similar to how chemical sedimentary rocks are formed (like rock salt or cave limestone). It is then separated into small individual crystals. This can be representative of weathering and erosion of rock into sediment
