A sample of calcium phosphate was found to have a mass of 125.3 g. How many molecules were contained in the sample?
Viktor [21]

The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.

  • <u><em>Therefore number of molecules(N) present in the calcium phosphate sample are  19.3 × 10^23 molecules.</em></u>

Explanation:

Given:

mass of calcium phosphate (Ca_{3}(PO_{4} )_{2} ) = 125.3 grams

We know;

molar mass of calcium phosphate  (Ca_{3}(PO_{4} )_{2} ) = (40×3) + 3 (31 +(4×16))

molar mass of calcium phosphate  (Ca_{3}(PO_{4} )_{2} ) = 120 + 3(95)

molar mass of calcium phosphate  (Ca_{3}(PO_{4} )_{2} )  = 120 +285 = 405 grams

<em>We also know;</em>

No of molecules at STP conditions(N_{A}) = 6.023 × 10^23 molecules

To solve:

no of molecules present in the sample(N)

We know;

\frac{m}{M} =\frac{N} }{}N÷N_{A}

\frac{405}{125.3} =\frac{N}{6.023*10^23}

N =(405×6.023 × 10^23) ÷ 125.3

N = 19.3 × 10^23 molecules

<u><em>Therefore number of molecules(N) present in the calcium phosphate sample are  19.3 × 10^23 molecules</em></u>

A stock solution of HNO3 is prepared and found to contain 13.5 M of HNO3. If 25.0 mL of the stock solution is diluted to a final
salantis [7]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 0.675 M

Explanation :

Using neutralization law,

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1 = concentration of HNO_3 = 13.5 M

M_2 = concentration of diluted solution = ?

V_1 = volume of HNO_3 = 25.0 ml  = 0.0250 L

conversion used : (1 L = 1000 mL)

V_2 = volume of diluted solution = 0.500 L

Now put all the given values in the above law, we get the concentration of the diluted solution.

13.5M\times 0.0250L=M_2\times 0.500L

M_2=0.675M

Therefore, the concentration of the diluted solution is 0.675 M

What is the pH of a solution with a concentration of 1.8 × 10-4 molar H3O+?
Andre45 [30]
PH is defined as the negative log of Hydrogen ion concentration. Mathematically we can write this as:

pH=-log[H^{+}]=-log[H_{3}O]

We are given the concentration of H_{3}O. Using the value in formula, we get:

pH=-log[1.8*10^{-4}]=3.745

Therefore, the pH of the solution will be 3.745

Lead(II) oxide from an ore can be reduced to elemental lead by heating in a furnace with carbon. Calculate the expected yield of
Lelu [443]

Answer:

53kg is the expected yield of lead

Explanation:

Firstly, in order to solve this question, we need to write the equation of reaction correctly. This is as follows:

PbO(s) + C(s) ---> Pb(l) + CO(g)

We proceed from here. We should get the limiting reactant but this can only be obtained by getting the number of moles of each reactant present.

The formula to use across all boards is that the number of moles is the mass of each of the reactant divided by the molar mass of each of the reactant.

For PBO, mass is 57kg = 57000g

Molar mass of PBO = 223.20g/mol

The number of moles is thus 57,000/223.2 = 255.37 moles

For carbon, mass is also 57kg = 57000g

Molar mass is 12g/mol

Number of moles of carbon = 57000/12 = 4750 moles

From the number of moles, we can see that the number of moles of Carbon is greater than that of PbO. This means that PbO is the limiting reagent.

Hence we use it to calculate percentage yield.

The number of moles of lead formed is the same of number of moles of lead oxide = 255.37 since we have mole ratio of 1 to 1

The molar mass of lead is 207.20g/mol

The mass of lead formed is = moles of lead formed * molar mass of lead = 207.20 * 255.37 = 52,912g which is approximately 53kg

Hence the expected yield is 53kg

Heyy guys, so basically i need help with stoichiometric calculation I will give you 100 points just to answer all of these answe
jeka94

Answer:

3. The mass of ethanol required is approximately 0.522869 g

The mass of ethanoic acid required is approximately 0.68156 g

4. The mass of iron (III) oxide required is approximately 285.952.189.095 tonnes

5. The mass of silver nitrate required is approximately 14.53 grams

6. The mass of copper oxide that would be needed is approximately 31.86 grams

7. a. The mass of the precipitate, Zn(OH)₂ formed is approximately 49.712 grams

b. The mass of the precipitate, Al(OH)₃ formed is approximately 13 grams

c. The mass of the precipitate, Mg(OH)₂, formed is approximately 14.579925 grams

Explanation:

3. The 1 mole of ethanol and 1 mole of ethanoic acid combines to form 1 mole of ethyl ethanoate

The number of moles of ethyl ethanoate in 1 gram of ethyl ethanoate, n = 1 g/(88.11 g/mol) = 1/88.11 moles

∴ The number of moles of ethanol = 1/88.11 moles

The number of moles of ethanoic acid = 1/88.11 moles

The mass of ethanol = (46.07 g/mol) × 1/88.11 moles = 0.522869 g

The mass of ethanoic acid in the reaction = 60.052 g/mol × 1/88.11 moles ≈ 0.68156 g

4. 1 mole of iron(III) oxide reacts with 1 mole of CO₂ to produce 1 mole of iron

The number of moles in 100 tonnes of iron= 100000000/55.845 = 1790670.60614 moles

The mass of iron (III) oxide required = 159.69 × 1790670.60614 = 285952189.095 g ≈ 285.952.189.095 tonnes

5. The number of moles of NaCl in 5 grams of NaCl = 5 g/58.44 g/mol = 0.0855578371 moles

The mass of silver nitrate required, m = 169.87 g/mol × 0.0855578371 moles ≈ 14.53 grams

6. The number of moles of CuSO₄·5H₂O in 100 g of CuSO₄·5H₂O = 100 g/(249.69 g/mol) ≈ 0.4005 moles

The mass of copper oxide required, m = 79.545 g/mol × 0.4005 moles ≈ 31.86 grams

7. a. The number of moles of NaOH in the reaction = 20 g/(39.997 g/mol) ≈ 0.5 moles

2 moles of NaOH produces 1 mole of Zn(OH)₂

0.5 moles of NaOH will produce 0.5 mole of Zn(OH)₂

The mass of 0.5 mole of Zn(OH)₂ = 0.5 mole × 99.424 g/mol = 49.712 grams

The mass of the precipitate, Zn(OH)₂ formed = 49.712 grams

b. 6 moles of NaOH produces 2 moles Al(OH)₃

20 g, or 0.5 mole of NaOH will produce (1/6) mole of Al(OH)₃

The mass of the precipitate, Al(OH)₃ formed, m = 78 g/mol×(1/6) moles = 13 grams

c. 2 moles of NaOH produces 1 mole of Mg(OH)₂, therefore;

20 g or 0.5 moles of NaOH formed (1/4) mole of Mg(OH)₂

The mass of the precipitate, Mg(OH)₂, formed, m = 58.3197 g/mol × (1/4) moles = 14.579925 grams
