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.

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

8. the answer is B.

9. the answer is A.

Explanation:

Hello!

8. In this case, by bearing to mind that the limiting reactant is always completely consumed and the excess one remain as a leftover at the end of the reaction, we can also infer that as all the limiting reactant is consumed, it must determine the maximum amount of product as the excess reactant will hypothetically produce a greater mass than expected; thus, the answer to this question is B.

9. In this case, since the mole ratio of oxygen to water is 1:2, the following proportional factor is used to calculate the produced mass of water:

3molO_2*\frac{2molH_2O}{1molO_2}=6molH_2O

Thus, the answer is this case is A.

Best regards!
