Silk is made by moth larvae, asprin is derived from tree bark, nylon was made initially in a labratory, but asprin and even synthetic silk can be produced by chemist.
So we know the number of moles of each compound. If we need to know the concentration we must know the number of moles that the compounds react with...
As mentioned above, the characteristic chemical property of a metal atom is to lose one or more of its electrons to form a positive ion. However, certain metals lose electrons much more readily than others. In particular, cesium (Cs) can give up its valence electron more easily than can lithium (Li).
Answer:
3.89 kg P2O5 must be used to supply 1.69 kg Phosphorus to the soil.
Explanation:
The molecular mass of P2O5 is
P2 = 2* 31 = 62
O5 = 5 *<u> 16 = 80</u>
Molecular Mass = 142
Set up a Proportion
142 grams P2O5 supplies 62 grams of phosphorus
x kg P2O5 supplies 1.69 kg of phosphorus
Though this might be a bit anti intuitive, you don't have to convert the units for this question. The ratio is all that is important.
142/x = 62/1.69 Cross multiply
142 * 1.69 = 62x combine the left
239.98 = 62x Divide by 62
239.98/62 = x
3.89 kg of P2O5 must be used.
