How many moles of magnesium phosphate, M...

How many moles of magnesium phosphate, `Mg_(3)(PO_(4)_(2)` will contain 0.25 mole of oxygen atoms?

A

0.02

B

`3.125 xx 10^(-2)`

C

`1.25 xx 10^(-2)`

D

`2.5 xx 10^(-2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

b) `Mg_(3)(PO_(4))_(2)` : 1 mol
8 moles of O-atom are contained by 1 moleof `Mg_(3)(PO_(4))_(2)`. Hence, 0.25 mole of O-atom are contained by
`=1/8 xx 0.25 = 3.125 xx 10^(-2)` mole of `Mg_(3)(PO_(4))_(2)`
