- Phosphorus occurs naturally in the form of fluorapatite, CaF2 3Ca3(PO4)2. The dot indicates 1 part CaF2 to 3 parts Ca3(PO4)2. This mineral is reacted with an aqueous solution of H2SO4 in the preparation of a fertilizer. The products are phosphoric acid, hydrogen fluoride, and gypsum, CaSO4 2H2O. Write the balanced equation describing this process.arrow_forwardThe following reactions are all similar to those of the industrial chemicals. Complete and balance the equations for these reactions: (a) reaction of a weak base and a strong acid. NH3+HClO4 (b) preparation of a soluble silver salt for silver plating. Ag2CO3+HNO3 (c) preparation of strontium hydroxide by electrolysis of a solution of strontium chloride SrCl2(aq)+H2O(l)electrolysisarrow_forwardWrite balanced chemical equations for the following reactions: (a) cadmium burned in air. (b) elemental cadmium added to a solution of hydrochloric acid. (c) cadmium hydroxide added to a solution of acetic acid, CH3CO2Harrow_forward
- Write balanced chemical equations for the following reactions: (a) metallic aluminum burned in air (b) elemental aluminum heated in an atmosphere of Chlorine (c) aluminum heated in hydrogen bromide gas (d) aluminum hydroxide added to a solution of nitric acidarrow_forwardPhosphate buffers are important in regulating the pH of intracellular fluids. If the concentration ratio of H2PO4/HPO42 in a sample of intracellular fluid is 1.1: 1, what is the pH of this sample of intracellular fluid? H2PO4(aq)HPO42(aq)+H+(aq)Ka=6.2108arrow_forwardIn 1774, C. Scheele obtained a gas by reacting pyrolusite (MnO2) with sulfuric acid. The gas, which had been obtained that same year by Joseph Priestley by a different method, was an element, A. (a) What is the element isolated by Scheele and Priestley? (b) Element A combines with almost all other elements. For example, with cesium it gives a compound in which the mass percent of A is 19.39%. The element combines with hydrogen to give a compound with a mass percent of element A of 94.12%. Determine the formulas of the cesium and hydrogen compounds. (c) The compounds of cesium and hydrogen with element A react with one another. Write a balanced equation for the reaction.arrow_forward
