The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation The reaction between calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) and phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) can be represented as follows: \[ 3 \text{CaCO}_3 + 2 \text{H}_3\text{PO}_4 \rightarrow \text{Ca}_3(\text{PO}_4)_2 + 3 \text{H}_2\text{O} + 3 \text{CO}_2 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the number of moles of reactants 1. **For CaCO₃:** - Molar mass of CaCO₃ = 40 (Ca) + 12 (C) + 3 × 16 (O) = 100 g/mol - Moles of CaCO₃ = \(\frac{50 \text{ g}}{100 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.5 \text{ moles}\) 2. **For H₃PO₄:** - Molar mass of H₃PO₄ = 3 (H) + 31 (P) + 4 × 16 (O) = 98 g/mol - Moles of H₃PO₄ = \(\frac{70 \text{ g}}{98 \text{ g/mol}} \approx 0.714 \text{ moles}\) ### Step 3: Determine the limiting reactant From the balanced equation, we see that: - 3 moles of CaCO₃ react with 2 moles of H₃PO₄. To find the required moles of H₃PO₄ for 0.5 moles of CaCO₃: - Required moles of H₃PO₄ = \(\frac{2}{3} \times 0.5 = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333 \text{ moles}\) Since we have 0.714 moles of H₃PO₄ available, and only 0.333 moles are required, CaCO₃ is the limiting reactant. ### Step 4: Calculate the amount of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ formed From the balanced equation: - 3 moles of CaCO₃ produce 1 mole of Ca₃(PO₄)₂. Thus, 0.5 moles of CaCO₃ will produce: - Moles of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = \(\frac{0.5}{3} = \frac{1}{6} \approx 0.167 \text{ moles}\) ### Step 5: Calculate the mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ formed - Molar mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = 3 × 40 (Ca) + 2 × (31 (P) + 4 × 16 (O)) = 310 g/mol - Mass of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ = \(0.167 \text{ moles} \times 310 \text{ g/mol} \approx 51.67 \text{ g}\) ### Step 6: Calculate the amount of unreacted H₃PO₄ From the balanced equation: - 2 moles of H₃PO₄ are required for 3 moles of CaCO₃. - For 0.5 moles of CaCO₃, required moles of H₃PO₄ = \(\frac{2}{3} \times 0.5 = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333 \text{ moles}\) Unreacted moles of H₃PO₄: - Unreacted moles = Initial moles - Required moles = \(0.714 - 0.333 = 0.381 \text{ moles}\) ### Step 7: Calculate the mass of unreacted H₃PO₄ - Mass of unreacted H₃PO₄ = \(0.381 \text{ moles} \times 98 \text{ g/mol} \approx 37.33 \text{ g}\) ### Final Answers: (i) Amount of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ formed = **51.67 g** (ii) Amount of unreacted H₃PO₄ = **37.33 g**

To solve the given problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation The reaction between calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) and phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) can be represented as follows: \[ 3 \text{CaCO}_3 + 2 \text{H}_3\text{PO}_4 \rightarrow \text{Ca}_3(\text{PO}_4)_2 + 3 \text{H}_2\text{O} + 3 \text{CO}_2 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the number of moles of reactants ...
