Number of Equivalents
« on: July 24, 2005, 07:47:53 AM »
Determine the number of  equivalents in 150 grams of H3PO4.  I took 150 grams and divided it by 32.7.  I got an answer of 4.59 equivalents.  Is this correct?

Its probably asking for something about H+, usually equivalents is used as a ratio of something to something else. Is that all they gave you?
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex
