Answer:

6049.69 g or 6.04969 Kg of ore must be processed to get 1 Kg of phosphorous.

Explanation:

Given

An ore has 51% Calcium phosphate

To find

The minimum mass of ore to be processed to get 1.00 Kg of phosphorous

First find the mass of phosphorous in 1 mole = molar mass of Calcium phosphate, Ca₃(PO₄)₃.

Molar mass  of Ca₃(PO₄)₃ is 310 g

Molar mass  of  P is 31 g

1 mole of Ca₃(PO₄)₃ has 3 atoms of phosphorous

i.e 310 g of  Ca₃(PO₄)₃ has 3× 31g of P

= 93 g P

93 g P wil be present in 310 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₃  

1 Kg or 1000 g of P will be in   (1000÷93) ×310

=3333.33 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₃

but the ore has only 55.1% Ca₃(PO₄)₃

i.e

100 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₃ will have 55.1g Ca₃(PO₄)₃

we need 3333.33g of Ca₃(PO₄)₃

100 g of ore  will have 55.1g Ca₃(PO₄)₃

3333.33g of Ca₃(PO₄)₃ will be present in

(3333.33÷ 55.1) ×100

= 6049.60 g of the ore

So 6049.69 g or 6.04969 Kg of ore must be processed to get 1 Kg of phosphorous.

Calculate the molar solubility of CaF2 in a 0.25 m solution of NaF(aq).
Kipish [7]

Answer:

6.4 × 10^-10 M

Explanation:

The molar solubility of the ions in a compound can be calculated from the Ksp (solubility constant).

CaF2 will dissociate as follows:

CaF2 ⇌Ca2+ + 2F-

1 mole of Calcium ion (x)

2 moles of fluorine ion (2x)

NaF will also dissociate as follows:

NaF ⇌ Na+ + F-

Where Na+ = 0.25M

F- = 0.25M

The total concentration of fluoride ion in the solution is (2x + 0.25M), however, due to common ion effect i.e. 2x<0.25, 2x can be neglected. This means that concentration of fluoride ion will be 0.25M

Ksp = {Ca2+}{F-}^2

Ksp = {x}{0.25}^2

4.0 × 10^-11 = 0.25^2 × x

4.0 × 10^-11 = 0.0625x

x = 4.0 × 10^-11 ÷ 6.25 × 10^-2

x = 4/6.25 × 10^ (-11+2)

x = 0.64 × 10^-9

x = 6.4 × 10^-10

Therefore, the molar solubility of CaF2 in NaF solution is 6.4 × 10^-10M

Un gas ocupa un volumen de 12 litros a una presión de 912 mm Hg. Si permanece constante la temperatura, ¿A qué presión el gas oc
adoni [48]

Answer:

The  pressure occupied is 1, 8 atm.

Explanation:

We use the Boyle´s Mariotte ´s law: for a given mass of gas at constant temperature, the pressure and volume vary inversely proportionally: P1xV1= P2xV2. The unit of pressure is converted to mmHg in atm.

760 mmHg----1 atm

912 mmHg---x= (912 mmHg x 1 atm)/760 mmHg=1,2 atm

P1xV1= P2xV2

P2=P1xV1/V2= 1,2 atm x 12 L/ 8L= <em>1, 8 atm</em>

Naming chlorine as an Ion
Katarina [22]

The name of the ion is chloride.

To name a <em>monatomic anion</em>

• <em>Drop the ending</em> of the element name (chlor<u>ine</u> → chlor)

• <em>Add the ending</em> <em>ide</em> (chlor + ide → chloride)
