Answer:
In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22 phosphorus atoms
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
tetraphosphorus decoxide = P4O10
Molar mass of P4O10 = 283.89 g/mol
Mass of P4O10 = 4.5 grams
Number of Avogadro = 6.022 * 10^23 / mol
Step 2: Calculate moles of P4O10
Moles P4O10 = mass P4O10 / molar mass P4O10
Moles P4O10 = 4.5 grams / 283.89 g/mol
Moles = 0.016 moles
Step 3: Calculate moles of P
For 1 mol P4O10 we have 4 moles of phosphorus
For 0.016 moles P4O10 we have 4*0.016 = 0.064 moles P
Step 4: Calculate number of P atoms
Number of P atoms = moles P * number of Avogadro
Number of P atoms = 0.064 moles * 6.022*10^23
Number of P atoms = 3.85 * 10^22 atoms
In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22 phosphorus atoms
Answer:
reacts to form carbondioxide
We can collect a sample of that food and add a drop of blue litmus solution. If the color of the litmus solution changes to red, it contains an acid as one of its ingredients.
