Answer:

3Mg(s) +2P(s) -------> Mg3P2(s) + energy

Keq= [Mg3P2]/[Mg]^3 [P]^2

Explanation:

The equation for the formation of magnesium phosphide from its elements is;

3Mg(s) +2P(s) -------> Mg3P2(s) + energy

Hence we can see that three moles of magnesium atoms combines with two moles of phosphorus atoms to yield one mole of magnesium phosphide. The equation written above is the balanced chemical reaction equation for the formation of the magnesium phosphide.

The equilibrium expression for the reaction K(eq) will be given by;

Keq= [Mg3P2]/[Mg]^3 [P]^2

Consider the following Reaction.

Hey there!:

Molar mass of Mg(OH)2 = 58.33 g/mol


number of moles Mg(OH)2 :

moles of Mg(OH)2 = 30.6 / 58.33 =>  0.5246 moles

Molar mass of H3PO4 =  97.99 g/mol

number of moles H3PO4:

moles of Mg(OH)2 = 63.6 / 97.99 => 0.649 moles

Balanced chemical equation is:


3 Mg(OH)2 + 2 H3PO4 --->  Mg3(PO4)2 + 6 H2O


3 mol of Mg(OH)2 reacts with 2 mol of H3PO4  ,for 0.5246 moles of Mg(OH)2, 0.3498 moles of H3PO4 is required , but we have 0.649 moles of H3PO4, so, Mg(OH)2 is limiting reagent !

Now , we will use Mg(OH)2 in further calculation  .

Molar mass of Mg3(PO4)2 = 262.87 g/mol

According to balanced equation  :

mol of Mg3(PO4)2 formed = (1/3)* moles of Mg(OH)2


= (1/3)*0.5246


= 0.1749 moles of Mg3(PO4)2

use :

mass of Mg3(PO4)2 = number of mol * molar mass


= 0.1749 *  262.87

= 46 g of Mg3(PO4)2

Therefore:

% yield = actual mass * 100 / theoretical mass

% = 34.7 * 100 / 46

% = 3470 / 46

= 75.5%


Hope that helps!

Explain how you would find the mass percent<br> of each element in water.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

finding the mass percentage oven element in a compound might sound complicated, but the calculation is simple. For example, to determine the mass percentage of hydrogen in water H2O, divide the major mass of hydrogen by the total molar mass of water and then multiply the result by 100

Enter your answer in the provided box.
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

5.06atm

Explanation:

Using the combined gas law equation;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (Litres)

V2 = final volume (Litres)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the information provided in this question;

P1 = 1.34 atm

P2 = ?

V1 = 5.48 L

V2 = 1.32 L

T1 = 61 °C = 61 + 273 = 334K

T2 = 31 °C = 31 + 273 = 304K

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1.34 × 5.48/334 = P2 × 1.32/304

7.34/334 = 1.32P2/304

Cross multiply

334 × 1.32P2 = 304 × 7.34

440.88P2 = 2231.36

P2 = 2231.36/440.88

P2 = 5.06

The final pressure is 5.06atm

What is the density of a cube of water measuring 2cmX4cmX1cm, with a mass of<br> 8g?
Vinil7 [7]

The actual formula for volume for a cube is the length multiplied by the width and then multiplied by the height. Since all three measurements are the same, the formula results in the measurement of one side cubed. For the example, 5^3 is 125 cm^3. Multiply the volume by the known density, which is the mass per volume.
