A 235.2-g sample of ground water is analyzed for calcium. The Ca2+ in the sample is first precipitated and filtered-off as NH4CaPO4·7H2O. This precipitate is dried and heated, releasing water and ammonia to yield anhydrous calcium pyrophosphate (Ca2P2O7). The mass of Ca2P2O7 obtained is 0.0234 g.Give the calcium content of the ground water in parts per million (to three significant figures).
Silicon reacts with sulfur at elevated temperatures. If 0.0923 g of silicon reacts with sulfur to give 0.3030 g of silicon sulfide, determine the empirical formula of silicon sulfide.
Solid barium oxide and carbon dioxide gas are produced by the decomposition of solid barium carbonate BaCO3.
Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction.
