The empirical formula for this oxide : As₂O₃

Further explanation:

Given

mass of Arsenic=3.26 g

mass of Oxygen = 1.04 g

Required

The empirical formula

Analysis

  • find mole of elements
  • determine the ratio of each element

Solution

mol of Arsenic(MW=74,9216 u) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{3.26}{74,9216}=0.0435

mol of Oxygen(MW=15.999 u) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{1.04}{15.999}=0.065.

The ratio for each element (divide by smaller mol⇒Arsenic)

Arsenic : Oxygen :

\tt \dfrac{0.0435}{0.0435}\div \dfrac{0.065}{0.0435}=1\div 1.5\rightarrow 2\div 3

The empirical formula : As₂O₃

1. Phosphorous reacts with bromine to form phosphorous tribromide. If 35.0 grams of bromine
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

70.6 %

Explanation:

First step, we define the reaction:

2P + 3Br₂  →  2PBr₃

We determine the moles of reactant:

35 g . 1mol / 159.8 g = 0.219 moles

We assume, the P is in excess, so the bromine is the limiting reagent.

3 moles of Br₂ can produce 2 moles of phophorous tribromide

Then, 0.219 moles may produce (0.219 . 2) /3 = 0.146 moles of PBr₃

We convert moles to mass:

0.146 mol .  270.67 g /mol = 39.5 g

That's the 100 % yield reaction, also called theoretical yield. The way to determine the % yield is:

(Yield produced / Thoeretical yield) . 100

(27.9 / 39.5) . 100 = 70.6 %

Classical bonding in NaH2PO4
lesantik [10]

NaH_2PO_4, a crystal structure with a short symmetrical hydrogen bond.

<h3>What is Classical bonding?</h3>

Classical models of the chemical bond. By classical, we mean models that do not take into account the quantum behaviour of small particles, notably the electron. These models generally assume that electrons and ions behave as point charges which attract and repel according to the laws of electrostatics.

Sodium dihydrogen phosphate is a derivative composed of glycerol derivatives formed by reacting mono and diglycerides that are derived from edible sources with phosphorus pentoxide followed by neutralization with sodium carbonate.

Bonding in NaH_2PO_4

NaH_2PO_4, a crystal structure with a short symmetrical hydrogen bond. Sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH_2PO_4) is monoclinic, space group P2,/c, with a= 6.808 (2), b= 13.491 (3), c=7.331 (2)/~, fl=92.88 (3) ; Z=8.
