Chemical Reactions and Equations

684 Questions

Chemical reactions and equations form a foundational chemistry topic where students identify reaction products, balance chemical formulas, and classify reaction types. It covers critical mechanisms like Markovnikov's rule, precipitation, and endothermic or exothermic processes. These questions are highly common in general science sections of state and central government competitive exams.

A Correct answer
Explanation

A well powdered phosphate rock or bone ash mixed known quantity of concentrate sulphuric acid is introduced into a cast iron chamber provided with mechanical stirrer and two valves at bottom. Each valve opens in a big chamber called den. The mixture is stirred for 2 to 5 minutes and then dumped mechanically into one of the dens through the valve. The mass is kept in the den for about 24 hours.

${ Ca } _{ 3 }{ \left( P{ O } _{ 4 } \right)  } _{ 2 }+2{ H } _{ 2 }S{ O } _{ 4 }+4{ H } _{ 2 }O\longrightarrow Ca{ ({ H } _{ 2 }P{ O } _{ 4 }) } _{ 2 }+2CaS{ O } _{ 4 }.2{ H } _{ 2 }O+Heat$

A mixture of calcium sulphate and calcium dihydrogen phosphate is obtained .This mixture is called superphosphate.
