Frequently Asked Questions
What is the molar mass of Ammonium phosphate?
The molar mass of Ammonium phosphate ((NH4)3PO4) is 149.087 g/mol. That is the sum of the standard atomic weights of all 20 atoms in one formula unit: 4 × 15.999 + 3 × 14.007 + 1 × 30.974 + 12 × 1.008 = 149.087.
What is the molecular weight of Ammonium phosphate?
149.087 — the same number as the molar mass, but as a dimensionless ratio rather than in g/mol. The two terms describe the same arithmetic, so a molecular weight of 149.09 and a molar mass of 149.09 g/mol are the same answer.
How many moles are in 100 g of Ammonium phosphate?
100 ÷ 149.087 = 0.6707 mol. To convert any mass to moles, divide by the molar mass; to go the other way, multiply.
What is the percent composition of Ammonium phosphate?
By mass, Ammonium phosphate is 42.93% oxygen, 28.19% nitrogen, 20.78% phosphorus, 8.11% hydrogen. Each element's share is its total mass in the formula divided by 149.087.
How many atoms are in one formula unit of Ammonium phosphate?
20: 4 oxygen, 3 nitrogen, 1 phosphorus, 12 hydrogen. One mole contains 6.02214076 × 10²³ formula units, so a mole of Ammonium phosphate contains 20 × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms in total.
