(0.12 ~g ) of an organic compound ' (X ) ' containing phosphorus on reacting with magnesia mixture gave (0.22 ~g ) of magnesium pyrophosphate ( ( Mg ₂ P ₂ O ₇ ) ). The percentage of phosphorus in the compound ' (X ) ' is
Options
- A(45.30 % )
- B(28.70 % )
- C(64.25 % )
- D(51.20 % )
Correct answer
D. (51.20 % )
Step-by-step solution
Estimation of phosphorus in organic compound is down by using magnesia mixture. It uses the working formula. ( P %= 62 222 w₁ w 100= 62 222 0.22 0.12 100=51.20 % )
