Answer:
The answer is 0.023 moles of phosphorus
Explanation:
The 15-15-15 fertilizer is a fertilizer of great versatility, made with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, which makes it one of the fertilizers most used for fertilizer in the sowing plant, thus covering the crop requirements from planting. .
This fertilizer consists of 14.25% phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5). Therefore, we have to remove 14.25% at 10 grams of 15-15-15 fertilizer to calculate the moles of phosphorus. As follows:
Grams of P2O5 = 10 g x 0.1425 = 1.425 g
We calculate the molecular weight of phosphorus. We use the periodic table:
Phosphorus molecular weight = 2 x 30.97 = 61.94 g/mol
Now we calculate the moles of phosphorus in the fertilizer:
Phosphorus moles = 1,425 g/61.94 g/mol = 0.023 moles
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
D. All the above
- Covalent compounds are always poor conductors of electricity while ionic compounds conduct electricity well when melted or dissolved.
- Covalent compounds can be solid, liquid or gas, but ionic compounds are solids.
- In covalent compounds the elements present are usually close together on the periodic table whereas in ionic compounds they are usually well separated.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <u>Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed from strong electrostatic interactions between ions.</u> Ionic bonding occurs between a nonmetal, which acts as an electron acceptor, and a metal, which acts as an electron donor. The atoms involved in ionic bonding lose or gain electrons and form positively or negatively charged ions.
- <em><u>Ionic compound are good conductors of electricity both in molten and aqueous form,. while covalent compound are poor conductors of electricity.</u></em>
- <u>Covalent compounds on the other hand are compounds that have bonds where electrons are shared between atoms.</u> These types bonds mostly occur between nonmetals or between two atoms of the same element.
All organic material has decaying Carbon-14 in it. But if plants and animals are still alive, they constantly replace the supply of Carbon in their systems so the amount of Carbon 14 in the system stays constant. Once a plant or animal dies, the Carbon is no longer regenerated and so the Carbon 14 starts to decay.
d. increasing the concentration of nitrogen gas
