Calculate the mass of phosphorus oxide 5 required to obtain phosphoric acid with a chemical amount of 0.05 mol.
Calculate the mass of phosphorus oxide 5 required to obtain phosphoric acid with a chemical amount of 0.05 mol. Determine the mass fraction of the solution obtained by dissolving the acid with the indicated amount in water weighing 1 kg.
Given:
n (Н3РО4) = 0.05 mol
m (H2O) = 1 kg = 1000 g
m (P2O5) -?
W (Н3РО4) -?
1) We write down the reaction equation and calculate the mass of P2O5:
P2O5 + 3 H2O = 2 H3PO4
M = 142 g / mol
m = 142 g
x = 142 g * 0.05 mol / 2 mol
x = 3.6 g (P2O5)
2) Calculate the mass fraction of acid in the solution:
W (Н3РО4) = m (Н3РО4) * 100% / m (solution)
M (H3PO4) = 98 g / mol
m (Н3РО4) = 0.05 mol * 98 g / mol = 4.9 g
m solution (Н3РО4) = 1000 g (Н2О) + 4.9 g (Н3РО4) = 1004.9 g
W (Н3РО4) = 4.9 g * 100% / 1004.9 g
W (H3PO4) = 0.49%
Answer: 3.6 g (P2O5), 0.49% (H3PO4)
