Answer:
It would be compound.
Explanation:
It is this way because if it adds another proton it becomes more positive that nuetral, and if you add an electron it just makes the atom more dense. That is why the answer is compound. Hope this helped :)
Mass of KNO₃ : = 40.643 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
28.5 g of K₃PO₄
Required
Mass of KNO₃
Solution
Reaction(Balanced equation) :
2K₃PO₄ + 3 Ca(NO₃)₂ = Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6 KNO₃
mol K₃PO₄(MW=212,27 g/mol) :
= mass : MW
= 28.5 : 212,27 g/mol
= 0.134
Mol ratio of K₃PO₄ : KNO₃ = 2 : 6, so mol KNO₃ :
= 6/2 x mol K₃PO₄
= 6/2 x 0.134
= 0.402
Mass of KNO₃ :
= mol x MW KNO₃
= 0.402 x 101,1032 g/mol
= 40.643 g
