If a particular ore contains 58.6 % calcium phosphate, what minimum mass of the ore must be processed to obtain 1.00 kg of phosp
rjkz [21]
Answer is: mass of the ore is 8.54kg.<span>

</span>ω(Ca₃(PO₄)₂ - calcium phosphate) = 58.6% ÷ 100% = 0.586.
m(P) = 1.00 kg · 1000 g/kg.
m(P) = 1000 g.
In one molecule of calcium phosphate there are two phosphorus atoms:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 310.18 g/mol.
M(P) = 30.97 g/mol.
For one kilogram of phosphorus, we need:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 2M(P) = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(P).
310.18 g/mol : 61.94 g/mol = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 1000 g.
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 5007.75 g ÷ 1000 g/kg = 5.007 kg.
Mass of ore find from proportion:
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(ore) = 56% : 100%.
m(ore) = 100% · 5.007 kg ÷ 58.6%.
m(ore) = 8.54kg.

Identify the weak diprotic acid. identify the weak diprotic acid. h2so4 hcooh
slega [8]
Among formic acid (HCOOH ) and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), formic acid is the weak acid. Acidic strength of any acid is the tendency of that acid to loose proton. Among these two acids formic acid has a pKa value of 3.74 greater than that of sulfuric acid i.e. -10. Remember! Greater the pKa value of acid weaker is that acid and vice versa. Below I have drawn the Ionization of both acids to corresponding conjugate bases and protons. The structures below with charges are drawn in order to explain the reason for strength. As it is seen in charged structure of formic acid, there is one positive charge on carbon next to oxygen carrying proton. The electron density is shifted toward carbon as it is electron deficient and demands more electron hence, attracting electron density from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond more polar. While, in case of sulfuric acid it is depicted that Sulfur attached to oxygen containing proton has 2+ charge, means more electron deficient as compared to carbon of formic acid, hence, more electron demanding and strongly attracting electrons from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond very polar and highly ionizable.

In the reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone with sodium borohydride, the major product has the tert-butyl group in the equator
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Axial position

Explanation:

In the reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone with sodium borohydride, the major product has the tert-butyl group in the equatorial position and the alcohol in the axial position.

The reason for this is that, axial bonds are parallel to each other. If  substituents are larger than hydrogen, they experience a greater steric crowding in axial compared to the equatorial position. Therefore, many substituted cyclohexane compounds prefer a conformation in which the larger substituents are in equatorial position.

3.604m + 104.29m + 3.1m + 17.41m. The sum expressed in the correct number of significant figures is
dedylja [7]

Answer:

128.4 m

Explanation:

3.604m + 104.29m + 3.1m + 17.41m

Add all the values

= 128.404 m

The significant figure rule for addition is for the sum to have the same number of decimal places as the value with the least number of decimal places. In the addition sentence 3.604m + 104.29m + 3.1m + 17.41m, the value with the least number of decimal places is 3.1, which has 1 decimal place. Therefore, we round our sum so that it also has 1 decimal place.

128.404 m

= 128.4 m

I hope this helps!

An ideal gas at constant temperature is confined in an airtight cylinder, and a piston pushes down on the gas in the cylinder. a
FrozenT [24]
Pushing down a piston in an airtight cylinder would tend to increase the pressure in the system since the particle collision and collisions with the walls are now more frequent. Also, pushing further, the gas would undergo a phase change from gas to a liquid.
