If the solution is brilliant re in alkalies and decolorized
by acids it’s the time to used phenolphthalein in analysis as an indicator. The
resulting solution is acidic, so you need an indicator that has a pH range that
includes pH values below 7.0, like methyl orange, methyl yellow If titrating a
strong acid and a weak base and it’s time to use as an indicator called bromophenol
blue .
Mass of KNO₃ : = 40.643 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
28.5 g of K₃PO₄
Required
Mass of KNO₃
Solution
Reaction(Balanced equation) :
2K₃PO₄ + 3 Ca(NO₃)₂ = Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6 KNO₃
mol K₃PO₄(MW=212,27 g/mol) :
= mass : MW
= 28.5 : 212,27 g/mol
= 0.134
Mol ratio of K₃PO₄ : KNO₃ = 2 : 6, so mol KNO₃ :
= 6/2 x mol K₃PO₄
= 6/2 x 0.134
= 0.402
Mass of KNO₃ :
= mol x MW KNO₃
= 0.402 x 101,1032 g/mol
= 40.643 g
The last one on that list would be your answer
