(a)
Interpretation:
The mass percent of NH4NO3 and (NH4)2HPO4 in a mixture which shows the mass percent of nitrogen to be 33.81 % has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Molecular weight:
The sum of the atomic weight of each constituent element multiplied by the number of atoms of that element is known as molecular weight of the compound.
It can be determined by using the molecular formula.
Mass percent:
It represents the mass of the constituent element in grams per exactly 100 g of compound.
mass % = mass of element in compoundmass of compound × 100%
(b)
Interpretation:
A 0.965 g sample of the mixture was dissolved in enough water to make 50.0mL of solution the pH of this solution should be determined.
Concept introduction:
pH and pOH can be calculated using the below mentioned equations;
pH= -log[H3O+]pOH = -log[OH-]
The pH and pOH of a water solution at 250C are related by the following equation,
pH+ pOH = 14
Molarity is the amount of moles of a compound dissolved in an amount of solvent (in liters)
Molarity (M) = Moles of soluteLiters of solution
