Answer:
0.109 g.
Explanation:
Equation of the reaction:
Na3PO4 + 3HCl --> 3NaCl + H3PO4
Number of moles of HCl = molar concentration × volume
= 0.1 × 0.04
= 0.004 mol.
By stoichiometry, 1 mole of Na3PO4 neutralises 3 moles of HCl. Therefore, number of moles of Na3PO4 = 0.004/3
= 0.0013 mol
Mass of Na3PO4 = molar mass × number of moles
= 0.0013 × 164
= 0.219 g
Since 50% of Na3PO4 was present in the sample. Let 100 g be the total mass of the substance
= 0.219 × 50 g/100 g
= 0.109 g.
A triple beam balance is used to measure mass
In order to determine, Order of reaction, we have to add all the exponents written in the Chemical form, on the Reactant species.
Hope this helps!
