molecular weight of compound = 120 + 62 + 128 = 310

weight of phosphurus in compound = 62

% of phosphurus in compound = weight of phosphurus ×100/molecular weight

= 62×100/310 = 20%

Answer:

Ca3(PO4)2

=40x3+(31+64)x2

=120+(95)x2

=120+190

=310g/mol

Atomic mass of phosphorus (p)=31g

% of phosphorus=2x31/310x100

=20%

hopes that question is usefull for you
