Answer:

Li3PO4 - correct

FePO4 - correct

Cu3PO4 - correct

Mg3(PO4)2 - correct

Explanation:

In order to answer this question we must be conversant with the idea of valency as well as the idea of writing formula of ionic substances.

Lithium has a valency of 1 while PO4^3- has a valency of 3 so the correct formula of lithium phosphate must be Li3PO4 after the exchange of valencies.

Iron III has a valency of 3 while the phosphate ion also has a valency of 3 so the subscripts cancel out and iron III phosphate is FePO4.

Copper I ion has a valency of 1 and the phosphate ion has a valency of 3. When they exchange valencies, the formula of the compound is Cu3PO4.

Magnesium has a valency of 2 while the phosphate ion has a valency of 3. The exchange of valency gives us the formula Mg3(PO4)2.

If the mass of the products of a chemical reaction was 100 g, what was
Rzqust [24]
If the mass of all of the products in a chemical reaction is equal to 100g then the mass of the reactants in that same reaction had to have had a mass of 100g this is due to the law of conservation of matter stating matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Consider a situation in which 211 g
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

3.00 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of P₄ = 211 g

Mass of oxygen = 240 g

Moles of P₂O₅ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

P₄ + 5O₂       →     2P₂O₅

Number of moles of P₄:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 211 g / 123.88 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.7 mol

Number of moles of O₂ :

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 240 g / 32g/mol

Number of moles = 7.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of product with reactant.

                       O₂         :         P₂O₅

                        5          :           2

                        7.5       :        2/5×7.5 = 3.00

                       P₄          :         P₂O₅

                        1           :           2

                       1.7         :       2×1.7 = 3.4 mol

Oxygen is limiting reactant so the number of moles of P₂O₅ are 3.00 mol.

Mass of P₂O₅:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3 mol ×283.9 g/mol

Mass = 852 g

What is the highest energy orbital of elements with valence electrons in the n=3 shell?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

d orbital

Explanation:

Given that:-

The principal quantum number, n = 3

The acceptable values of azimuthal quantum number, l are:-

l = 0 , 1 , 2

l = 0 corresponds to s orbital which can accomodate 2 electrons.

l = 1 corresponds to p orbital which can accomodate 6 electrons.

l = 2 corresponds to d orbital which can accomodate 10 electrons.

<u>Thus, the highest energy orbital is: - d orbital</u>
