AI Generated Solution

To calculate the percentage of phosphorus in the fertilizer superphosphate \( \text{Ca(H}_2\text{PO}_2\text{)}_2 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Molecular Mass of Superphosphate The molecular formula of superphosphate is \( \text{Ca(H}_2\text{PO}_2\text{)}_2 \), which can also be written as \( \text{CaH}_4\text{P}_2\text{O}_4 \). We will calculate the molecular mass using the atomic masses provided: - Calcium (Ca): 40 g/mol - Hydrogen (H): 1 g/mol ...
