<u>Answer:</u> The mass of phosphorus that is present for given amount of calcium is 28.53 g.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of calcium = 50 grams

The chemical formula of calcium phosphate is Ca_3(PO_4)_2

Molar mass of calcium = 40 g/mol

Molar mass of phosphorus = 31 g/mol

In 1 mole of calcium phosphate, 120 grams of calcium is combining with 62 grams of phosphorus.

So, 50 grams of calcium will combine with = \frac{62}{120}\times 50=28.53g of phosphorus.

Hence, the mass of phosphorus that is present for given amount of calcium is 28.53 g.

Answer:

Mass =  42.8g

Explanation:

4 NH 3 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 4 NO ( g ) + 6 H 2 O ( g )

Observe that every 4 mole of ammonia requires 5 moles of oxygen to obtain 4 moles of Nitrogen oxide and 6 moles of water.

Step 1: Determine the balanced chemical equation for the chemical reaction.

The balanced chemical equation is already given.

Step 2: Convert all given information into moles (through the use of molar mass as a conversion factor).

Ammonia = 63.4g × 1mol / 17.031 g = 3.7226mol

Oxygen = 63.4g × 1mol / 32g = 1.9813mol

Step 3: Calculate the mole ratio from the given information. Compare the calculated ratio to the actual ratio.

If all of the 1.9831 moles of oxygen were to be used up, there would need to be 1.9831 × 4 / 5 or 1.5865 moles of Ammonia. We have 3.72226 moles of ammonia - Far excess. Because there is an excess of Ammonia, the Oxygen amount is used to calculate the amount of the products in the reaction.

Step 4: Use the amount of limiting reactant to calculate the amount of H2O produced.

5 moles of O2  = 6 moles of H2O

1.9831 moles = x

x = (1.9831 * 6 ) / 5

x = 2.37972 moles

Mass of H2O = Molar mass * Molar mass

Mass = 2.7972 * 18

Mass =  42.8g

Chemical reaction to form products this chemical equation represents one such reaction the coefficient for one of the reactants
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

In a chemical equation, chemicals that react are the reactants, while chemicals that are produced are the products/by products. Both sides of the equation must be balanced.

\

Explanation

When writing a chemical equation, reactants reacts to produce products. For example in the equation for formation of water, hydrogen combines with oxygen as 2H₂ +O₂→2H₂O where the first part before the arrow represent the reactants and the next part after the arrow are the products. Reactants are on the left where as products are on the right.Coefficient 2, in this cases is used for balancing the equation
