Molecular mass of pyrophosphoric acid = 177.98 g/mol
mass of pyrophosphoric acid produced = 53.4 g
molar mass of phosphoric acid = 98 g/mol
number of moles in 53.4 g of phosphoric acid = 53.4/ 177.98 = 0.3
From the above eqn.
1 mol of pyrophosphoric acid is produced by 2 mol of phosphoric acid
mass of 2 moles of phosphoric acid = 2 x 98 = 196 g
mass of phosphoric acid required for formation of 1 mol of pyrophosphoric acid = 196 g
mass of phosphoric acid required for formation of 0.3 mol of pyrophosphoric acid = 0.3 x 196 = 58.8 g
mass of pyrophosphoric acid produced = 53.4 g
molar mass of phosphoric acid = 98 g/mol
number of moles in 53.4 g of phosphoric acid = 53.4/ 177.98 = 0.3
From the above eqn.
1 mol of pyrophosphoric acid is produced by 2 mol of phosphoric acid
mass of 2 moles of phosphoric acid = 2 x 98 = 196 g
mass of phosphoric acid required for formation of 1 mol of pyrophosphoric acid = 196 g
