MCQ
How many moles of magnesium phosphate, $Mg_3(PO_4)_2$ will contain $0.25$ mole of oxygen atoms ?
  • A
    $1.25 \times 10^{-2}$
  • B
    $2.5 \times 10^{-2}$
  • C
    $0.02$
  • $3.125 \times 10^{-2}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$3.125 \times 10^{-2}$
d
In one $\mathrm{Mg}_{3}\left(\mathrm{PO}_{4}\right)_{2}$ molecule no of oxygen atoms $=8$

So if there is $M\; mole$ of $Mg_3\left(\mathrm{PO}_{4}\right)_{2}$ molecules then no of moles of oxygen atoms is $=\mathrm{M} \times 8$

According to question,

$M \times 8=0.25$

$\Rightarrow M=0.03125=3.125 \times 10^{-2}$
