Example; Ammonium phosphate, (NH4)3PO4 is use as a fertilizer. 29.8g of this salt is prepared by neutralizing phosphoric acid, H 3PO4 with ammonium gas, NH 3. Calculate the volume of ammonium gas, NH 3 reacted at room conditions.(Relative atomic mass; H, 1: N, 14: P, 31; O, 16; Molar volume; 24 dm3 mol -1 at room conditions)

1.

Calculate the minimum volume of 18.25 g dm-3 hydrochloric acid required to react completely with 1.30 g zinc powder. [Relative atomic mass: H = 1; Cl = 35.5 ; Zn = 65]

2.

100 cm3 of sulphuric acid is added to excess barium chloride solution. A white precipitate is formed. The maximum of white precipitate formed is 37.28g a) Named the white precipitate formed b) Calculated the consentration of sulphuric acid used in gdm-3 ( Relative atomic mass; H, 1; O, 16; S, 32; Ba, 137 )

3. Barium chloride solution reacts with sulphuric acid as follows: BaCl2(aq) + H2SO4(aq) BaSO4(s) + 2HCl(aq) a) b) What volume of sulphuric acid, 1 mole dm-3 is required to reacts with 100cm3 BaCl2 0.5 mole Calculate the mass of BaSO4 which is formed in this reaction. (Ba = 137; S = 32 ; O =16) dm-3?
