4 0

Answer:

a) <u>310.18 g/mol</u>

<u>b) 4.352 moles Ca3(PO4)2</u>

<u>c) 2.6 * 10^24 molecules</u>

<u>d) 5.24 * 10^24 P atoms</u>

<u>e)13.056 moles Ca</u>

<u>f)</u>10825.3 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Atomic mass of Ca = 40.08 g/mol

Atomic mass of P = 30.97 g/mol

Atomic mass of O = 16.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate molecular weight of Ca3(PO4)2

Molecular weight of Ca3(PO4)2 = 3*atomic mass of Ca + 2* atomic mass of P and 8* atomic mass of O

Molecular weight of Ca3(PO4)2 = 3*40.08 + 2*30.97 + 8*16.0  =<u> 310.18 g/mol</u>

Step 3: Calculate moles of Ca3(PO4)2 in 1350 grams

Moles Ca3(PO4)2 = mass Ca3(PO4)2 /molar mass

Moles Ca3(PO4)2 = 1350 grams / 310.18 g/mol

Moles Ca3(PO4)2 = <u>4.352 moles</u>

Step 4: Calculate molecules in 1350 grams

Molecules = moles * number of Avogadro

Molecules = 4.352 moles * 6.02 * 10^23

Molecules = <u>2.6 *10^24 molecules</u>

<u />

Step 5: Calculate moles Phosphorus

For 1 mol Ca3(PO4)2 we need 2 moles P

For 4.352 moles Ca3(PO4)2 we have 2*4.352 = 8.704 moles

Step 6: Calculate P atoms

Atoms P = 8.704 moles * 6.02*10^23

Atoms P =<u> 5.24 * 10^24 P atoms</u>

<u />

Step 7: Calculate moles Calcium in 1350 grams

For 1 mol Ca3(PO4)2 we have 3 moles Ca

For 4.352 moles we have 3*4.352 = <u>13.056 moles Ca</u>

<u />

<u />

<u>Step 8:</u> Calculate mass of 2.1 * 10^25 molecules of Ca3(PO4)2

Moles Ca3(PO4)2 = 2.1 * 10^25 / 6.02 * 10^23

Moles Ca3(PO4)2 = 34.9 moles

Mass Ca3(PO4)2 = 34.9 moles * 310.18 g/mol

Mass Ca3(PO4)2 = 10825.3 grams

3. Do distilled water conduct electricity? What will happen if we add sugar to it and
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

It cannot conduct electricity, however adding salt or sugar will make the water have impurities/other substance making it easier to conduct electricity

Explanation:

Distilled water by itself does not contain impurities, thus, it cannot <em>conduct </em>electricity.

When you put salt in water, the water molecules pull the sodium and chlorine ions apart so they are floating freely, increasing the conductivity.

For more information, please refer to the internet :D

Have fun studying, and goodluck!

ELEN [110]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. <span>A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is exothermic, while a forward reaction in which adding heat increases product formation is endothermic. Exothermic would mean that heat is being released by the process while the opposite is called endothermic in which it absorbs heat.</span>
