This price has been marked up 6% from the wholesale price that they pay to the manufacturer. You decide to use your knowledge of chemistry to produce your own ammonium phosphate and sell it to Home Depot at 5¢ below the wholesale price. You contact a packager, who agrees to package your product for 29¢ per bag. Ammonium phosphate is produced from ammonia (NH3) and phosphoric acid (H,PO4). Ammonia, in turn, can be produced at a 50% yield via the Haber process, using a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2) gases with an iron catalyst. Phosphoric acid is obtained from a naturally occurring mineral called fluorapatite, Cas(PO4)3F, by the following process: fluoroapatite is mixed with silica sand (SiO2) and coke (elemental carbon, C) in an electric furnace. The products are carbon monoxide (CO), tetrafluorosilane…arrow_forwardtypical aspirin tablet contains 5.00 grains of pure aspirin analgesic compound. The rest of the tablet is starch.
