Answer:

820.864 g

Explanation:

1) The atomic mass of sulfur (found from the periodic table) is 32.065 amu. Use this mass to find the molar mass of Sulfur. Sulfur is S8 so the molar mass of sulfur is:

8 × 32.065 = 256.52 g/mol

2) To find the mass use the formula:

m = n × M where m is the mass, n is the number of moles, and M is the molar mass.

$m \: = 3.2 \times 256.52$

$m = 820.864 \: g$

The solubility of magnesium phosphate at a given temperature is 0.173 g/L. Calculate the Ksp at this temperature. After you calc

jek_recluse [69]

Answer: $K_{sp}=1.25\times 10^{-14}$

$pK_{sp}=13.90$

Explanation:

Solubility product is defined as the equilibrium constant in which a solid ionic compound is dissolved to produce its ions in solution. It is represented as $K_{sp}$

The equation for the ionization of magnesium phosphate is given as:

$Mg_3(PO_4)_2\rightarrow 3Mg^{2+}+2PO_4^{3-}$

When the solubility of $Mg_3(PO_4)_2$ is S moles/liter, then the solubility of $Mg^{2+}$ will be 3S moles\liter and solubility of $PO_4^{3-}$ will be 2S moles/liter.
