• If 20.0 mL of a 0.100 M solution of sodium phosphate is mixed with 25.0 mL of a 6
0.200 M solution of zinc chloride, what mass of zinc phosphate will precipitate from
the reaction?
Steps: 1) Write equation for the reaction; 2) Determine amount (in moles) of starting
materials present; 3) Determine which of the starting materials is limiting; 4) Based on
the limiting reagent, determine the amount (in moles) of product obtained; 5) Use molar
mass of product to determine mass of product obtained.
Answer: 0.386 g
What is the final concentration of zinc ions in solution after the above reaction?
The total volume of the solution after mixing is (20.0 + 25.0) = 45.0 mL so the
concentration is:
[Zn2+] = number of moles/volume in L
= 0.00200 mol /(45.0 × 10-3 L) = 0.0444 M
Answer: 0.0444 M
