Many fertilizers contain ammonium phosphate as a source of phosphorus and nitrogen. A 8.22 g sample of a fertilizer is dissolved in water and mixed with excess barium chloride solution, and the following reaction occurs: 2 (NH4)3PO4(aq) + 3 BaCl2(aq) → Ba3(PO4)2(s) + 6 NH,CI(aq) The product mixture is found to contain 2.61 g of barium phosphate. Using this information, calculate the percentage by mass of ammonium phosphate in the fertilizer. Type your final answer below and upload your work for this question in question. You will not earn ANY points if you do not upload the solution to this question. Please do not include any units. Report your answer to one decimal place.

States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
Question
Transcribed Image Text:Many fertilizers contain ammonium phosphate as a source of phosphorus and
nitrogen. A 8.22 g sample of a fertilizer is dissolved in water and mixed with excess
barium chloride solution, and the following reaction occurs:
2 (NH4)3PO4(aq) + 3 BaCl2(aq) → Ba3(PO4)2(s) + 6 NH,CI(aq)
The product mixture is found to contain 2.61 g of barium phosphate. Using this
information, calculate the percentage by mass of ammonium phosphate in the
fertilizer.
