Answer:
0.677 moles
Explanation:
Take the atomic mass of K = 39.1, O =16.0, P = 31.0
no. of moles = mass / molar mass
no. of moles of K3PO4 used = 4.79 / (39.1x3 + 31 + 16x4)
= 0.02256 mol
From the equation, the mole ratio of KOH : K3PO4 = 3 :1,
meaning every 3 moles of KOH used, produces 1 mole of K3PO4.
So, using this ratio, let the no. of moles of KOH required to be y.
y = 0.02256 x3
y = 0.0677 mol
If you don't find exactly 0.677 moles as one of the options, go for the closest one. A very slight error may occur because of taking different significant figures of atomic masses when calculating.
Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>0.456M</u>
Explanation:
<u>1. Balanced molecular equation</u>
<u>2. Mole ratio</u>
<u>3. Moles of HNO₃</u>
- Number of moles = Molarity × Volume in liters
- n = 0.600M × 0.0100 liter = 0.00600 mol HNO₃
<u>4. Moles Ba(OH)₂</u>
- n = 0.700M × 0.0310 liter = 0.0217 mol
<u>5. Limiting reactant</u>
Actual ratio:
Since the ratio of the moles of HNO₃ available to the moles of Ba(OH)₂ available is less than the theoretical mole ratio, HNO₃ is the limiting reactant.
Thus, 0.006 moles of HNO₃ will react completely with 0.003 moles of Ba(OH)₂ and 0.0217 - 0.003 = 0.0187 moles will be left over.
<u>6. Final molarity of Ba(OH)₂</u>
- Molarity = number of moles / volume in liters
- Molarity = 0.0187 mol / (0.0100 + 0.0031) liter = 0.456M
