4.79 Phosphoric add (H3PO4) is important in the production of both fertilizers and detergents. It is distributed commercially as a solution with a concentration of about 14.8 M. Approximately 2.1 X l09 gallons of this concentrated phosphoric acid solution is produced annually in the United States. Assuming that all of this H3PO4 is produced by the reaction below, what mass of the mineral fluoruapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F) would be required each year? Ca5( PO4)3F+5H2SO43H3PO4+5CaSO4+HF
ABS plastic is a tough, hard plastic used in applications requiring shock resistance. The polymer consists of three monomer units: acrylonitrile (C3H3N), butadiene (C4H6), and styrene (C8H8). a. A sample of ABS plastic contains 8.80% N by mass. It took 0.605 g of Br2 to react completely with a 1.20-g sample of ABS plastic. Bromine reacts 1: 1 (by moles) with the butadiene molecules in the polymer and nothing else. What is the percent by mass of acrylonitrile and butadiene in this polymer? b. What are the relative numbers of each of the monomer units in this polymer?
Calcium carbonate forms carbon dioxide and calcium oxide when it is heated above 900 °C in a limekiln. When heated to 1000 °C in a laboratory, 4.31 g calcium carbonate produces 2.40 g calcium oxide and 1.90 g carbon dioxide. Outline a method similar to combustion analysis by which you could determine the empirical formula for calcium carbonate from these data. Carry out the determination.
