Phosphorus is obtained primarily from ores containing calcium phosphate.

Chemistry
1 answer:
ladessa [460]3 years ago

Answer:

33.7 kg

Explanation:

Let's consider calcium phosphate Ca₃(PO₄)₂.

The molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is 310.18 g/mol and the molar mass of P is 30.97 g/mol. In 1 mole of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ (310.18 g) there are 2 × 30.97 g = 61.94 g of P. The mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ that contains 3.57 kg (3.57 × 10³ g) of P is:

3.57 × 10³ g × (310.18 g Ca₃(PO₄)₂/61.94 g P) = 1.79 × 10⁴ g Ca₃(PO₄)₂

A particular ore contains 53.1% calcium phosphate. The mass of the ore that contains 1.79 × 10⁴ g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is:

1.79 × 10⁴ g Ca₃(PO₄)₂ × (100 g Ore/ 53.1 g Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 3.37 × 10⁴ g Ore = 33.7 kg Ore

Maia says that both lines on this position vs time graph show acceleration. Is she correct? Why or why not? help me please i nee
Margarita [4]
Let's start by using the definition of acceleration. Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over the change in time. In equation, that would be Δvelocity/Δtime. Based on the axes of the given graph, it shows the trend of position over time. So, the slope of the line and the curve shows the change of position over change of time, Δdistance/Δtime. In physics, this is the definition of speed or velocity. So, Maia is incorrect. Both curves show the speed or velocity of the object, and not acceleration. If the graph used a y-axis of velocity instead of position, then only at that instance, would be Maia be correct.

The difference between the two is, the straight line shows constant velocity while the curve line shows changing velocity.

In an experiment, 0.42 mol of co and 0.42 mol of h2 were placed in a 1.00-l reaction vessel. at equilibrium, there were 0.29 mol
Likurg_2 [28]
To determine the Keq, we need the chemical reaction in the system. In this case it would be:

CO + 2H2 = CH3OH

The Keq is the ration of the amount of the product and the reactant. We use the ICE table for this. We do as follows:

          CO           H2             CH3OH
I         .42           .42                    0
C     -0.13      -2(0.13)            0.13
-----------------------------------------------
E =    .29           0.16               0.13

Therefore, 

Keq = [CH3OH] / [CO2] [H2]^2 = 0.13 / 0.29 (0.16^2)
Keq = 17.51

At 450 mm Hg a gas has a volume of 760 L, what is its volume at standard pressure​
KatRina [158]

Answer:

450.0 L.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and T are constant, and have different values of P and V:

<em>(P₁V₁) = (P₂V₂).</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = 760.0 L, P₁ = 450.0 mm Hg,

V₂ = ??? L, ​P₂ = 760.0 mm Hg (standard pressure = 1.0 atm = 760 mm Hg).

∴ V₂ = (P₁V₁)/(P₂) = (760.0 L)(450.0 mm Hg)/(760.0 mm Hg) = 450.0 L.
