<span>NPK ratio system is a conventional shorthand for the ratio of the nitrogen N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) in a fertilizer. It actually shows amount of P</span>₂O₅.
If we use 100 kg of P₂O₅:
m(P₂O₅) = 0,15 · 100 kg.
m(P₂O₅) = 15 kg.
m(P₂O₅) : M(P₂O₅) = m(P) : 2M(P).
15 kg : 142 = m(P) : 62.
m(P) = 6,55 kg.
ω(P) = 6,55 kg ÷ 100 kg · 100% = 6,55%.
Answer:
carbon group
All the carbon group atoms, having four valence electrons, form covalent bonds with nonmetal atoms; carbon and silicon cannot lose or gain electrons to form free ions, whereas germanium, tin, and lead do form metallic ions but only with two positive charges.
Answer:
H2O<en<phen
Explanation:
The degree of d- splitting is observed from the intensity of colour. The order of d splitting from least to greatest is H2O<en<phen. Phen shows the greatest d-splitting. The degree of splitting of d- orbitals by ligands depends on their relative positions in the spectrochemical series. The spectrochemical series is an experimentally determined series. The series separates the ligands into strong field and weak field ligands. Strong field ligands are found towards the end of the series. Strong field ligands such as en and phen can participate in metal to ligand or ligand to metal pi-bonding. Hence they cause more d-splitting. Ethylendiamine and phenanthroline occur towards the end of the spectrochemical series hence the higher order of d-splitting.
