a) Determine the molecular formula for the phosphorus oxide.
b) Calculate the percentage by mass of the element phosphorus in the molecule.
mol P4O10 = 6.28 g = 0.0221 mol [4(31) + 10(16)]g/mol
In 0.00221 mol P4O10 there have 0.0221 x 4 mol P = 0.0884 mol P
mass of P = 0.0884 mol x 31 g/mol = 2.7404 g
% by mass of P = 2.7404 g x 100 = 43.6% 6.28 g
c) What is the mass of oxygen in the sample?
In 0.0221 mol P4O10, there have 0.0221 x 10 mol O = 0.221 mol O

10. 74.8 g MnO2 reacts with the 48.2 g HCl to produce MnCl2, Cl2 and H2O according to this chemical equation: MnO2 + 4HCl MnCl2 + Cl2 + 2H2O a) Determine the limiting reagent
mol MnO2 = 74.8 g = 0.86 mol [55 + 2(16)]g/mol
mol HCl = 48.2 g = 1.32 mol [1 + 35.5]g/mol
From the balanced equation
4 mol HCl 1 mol MnO2
1.32 mol HCl 1.32 mol HCl x 1 mol MnO2 = 0.33 mol MnO2
4 mol HCl
MnO2 is the excess reagent since 0.86 mol present, more than needed. Therefore HCl is the limiting reagent.
b) How much is the mass of MnCl2 formed? From the balanced equation
4 mol HCl 1 mol MnCl2
1.32 mol HCl 1.32 mol HCl x 1 mol MnCl2 = 0.33 mol MnCl2
4 mol HCl
Mass of MnCl2 = 0.33 mol x [55 + 2(35.5)]g/mol = 41.58 g
b) How much of the excess reagent (in gram) is left at the end of the reaction?
mol of excess reagent = 0.86 mol – 0.33 = 0.53 mol
mass of the excess reagent (MnO2) = 0.53 mol x 87 g/mol = 46.11 g

b) 1.325 g dried sodium carbonate, Na2CO3 is dissolved in water until it reached volume of 250.0 mL. 25.0 mL of this solution is titrated with H2SO4. Volume of acid needed is 23.4 mL. Calculate the concentration (molarity) of sulphuric acid.
H2SO4 + Na2CO3 Na2SO4 + CO2 + H2O
mol Na2CO3 = 1.325 g = 0.0125 mol Na2CO3
[2(23) + 12 + 3(16)]g/mol
Molarity Na2CO3 = 0.0125 mol ÷ 250 x 10-3 L = 0.05 M
In titration
MaVa = MbVb
Ma(23.4 mL) = (0.05 M)(25.0)
Ma = 0.053 M
