Question 2 Ammonium phosphate NH43PO4 is an important ingredient in many fertilizers. It can be made by reacting phosphoric acid
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The answer is 12.27 g (NH4)3PO4

Explanation:

Step 1: balance the chemical equation:

H3PO4 + 3NH3 → (NH4)3PO4

step 2: the molar masses of each of the reagents and products are calculated using the periodic table:

H3PO4:

3 atoms of H: 3x1=3 g/mol

1 atom of P: 1x30.97=30.97 g/mol

4 atoms of O: 4x16=64 g/mol

Molar mass=3+30.97+64=97.97 g/mol

3NH3:

3 atoms of N: 3x14=42 g/mol

9 atoms of H: 9x1=9 g/mol

Molar mass=42+9=51 g/mol

(NH4)3PO4:

3 atoms of N: 3x14=42 g/mol

12 atoms of H: 12x1=12 g/mol

1 atom of P: 1x30.97=30.97 g/mol

4 atoms of O: 4x16=64 g/mol

Molar mass=42+12+30.97+64=148.97 g/mol

we make a rule of three to calculate the amount of ammonium phosphate:

51 g NH3------------------148.97 g (NH4)3PO4

4.2 g NH3-----------------x g (NH4)3PO4

Clearing the x, we have:

x g (NH4)3PO4 = \frac{(4.2 g NH3)x(148.97 g (NH4)3PO4)}{51 g NH3}=12.27 g (NH4)3PO4
