Observations: Mass of plant food (original sample) = 2 g Weight of Filter Paper = W1 = 0.87 g Weight of Filter paper + Precipitate = W2 = 2.85 g %3D Weight of Precipitate W - Wi = 2.85 – 0.87 = 1.98 Table 1: Measurement of Conductance. Trial 1 Plant Food (g) Amount of P (g) % P Calculations: 2 g of soluble plant food yields (W2-W:) g of MGNH4PO4.6H2O [M9NH«PO4.6H2O] E P 245 g 31 g (Wz-Wi) g of MGNHPO4.6H2O = X' g of P Amount of P = Percent phosphorous in the original sample: % P ( gP 'g original sample x 100
