Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf Almost \ all \ phosphates \ are \ insoluble}}$

Explanation:

For magnesium phosphate to make an aqueous solution, it must be soluble in water.

Let's check the solubility rules. There are many different lists and versions, but it should mention a rule about phosphates.

All phosphates are insoluble except Na₃PO4 (sodium phosphate), K₃PO4 (potassium phosphate), and H₁₂N₃PO₄ (ammonium phosphate).

Magnesium phosphate is included in "all phosphates" so it is insoluble and can't become an aqueous solution.

How many moles of carbonate are there in sodium carbonate

vaieri [72.5K]

There are 0.566 moles of carbonate in sodium carbonate.

<h3>CALCULATE MOLES:</h3>

The number of moles of carbonate (CO3) in sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) can be calculated by dividing the mass of carbonate in the compound by the molar mass of the compound.

no. of moles of CO3 = mass of CO3 ÷ molar mass of Na2CO3

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 23(2) + 12 + 16(3)

= 46 + 12 + 48 = 106g/mol

mass of CO3 = 12 + 48 = 60g

no. of moles of CO3 = 60/106

no. of moles of CO3 = 0.566mol

Therefore, there are 0.566 moles of carbonate in sodium carbonate.

Mama L [17]

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {QUESTION:}}}$

The solid product from reaction of sulfuric acid with sucrose is?

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {ANSWER:}}}$

Concentrated <u>sulfuric acid</u> is added to sucrose forming carbon, steam and <u>sulfur</u> dioxide.

<h3>RELATED TO THE QUESTION </h3>

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {What \: is \: solid?:}}}$

<u>Solid is one of the four fundamental states of matter</u>. The molecules in a solid are closely packed together and contain the least amount of kinetic energy.
<u>A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface</u>.

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt {What \: is \: sulfur \: acid?}}}$

<u>Sulfuric acid or sulphuric acid, also known as oil of vitriol, is a mineral acid composed of the elements sulfur, oxygen and hydrogen</u>, with molecular formula H₂SO₄. It is a colorless, odorless and viscous liquid that is miscible with water at all concentrations.

$\huge{\mathbb{\tt{What \: is \: sucrose?}}}$

<u>Sucrose is common sugar. It is a disaccharide</u>, a molecule composed of two monosaccharides: glucose and fructose. Sucrose is produced naturally in plants, from which table sugar is refined. It has the molecular formula C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁.
