Question

A sample of ammonium phosphate contains 3.18 mole of hydrogen atoms.the number of moles of oxygen atoms in this sample is

Answer 1

3N+12H+P+4O=(NH4)3PO4
Given-
Moles of hydrogen atom=3.18
So mole of Oxygen atom is=3.18/3
=1.06

Answer 2

$\Huge\blue{\mathfrak{\underline{\underline{answer}}}}$

$\large\red{\textbf{1.06 moles}}$

$\Huge\blue{\mathfrak{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}}$

→ 1 mole of (NH4)3PO4 will contain 12 mole H- atom

→ So, 3.18 mole of H-atom will be present in

→ 1/12 × 3.18 moles of (NH4)3PO4

= 0.265 moles of (NH4)3PO4

→ 1 mole of (NH4)3PO4 contains 4 moles of H-atom.

→ So, 0.265 (NH4)3PO4 will contain

→ 4×0.265 = 1.06 moles of oxygen atoms.
