1. A 0.3516 g sample of commercial phosphate detergent was ignited at a heat to destroy the organic matter. The residue was taken up in hot HCI which converted P to H3PO4. The phosphate was precipitated as MGNH.PO4.6H2O by addition of Mg followed by aqueous NH3. After being filtered and washed, the precipitate was converted to Mg P2O7 by ignition at 1000 OC. This residue weighed 0.2161 g. Calculate the percent P (30.974) in the sample? Ans 17.11%

Question
1. A 0.3516 g sample of commercial phosphate detergent was ignited at a heat to destroy the organic
matter. The residue was taken up in hot HCI which converted P to H3PO4. The phosphate was precipitated
as MGNH4PO4.6H2O by addition of Mg+ followed by aqueous NH3. After being filtered and washed, the
precipitate was converted to Mg2P2O7 by ignition at 1000 OC. This residue weighed 0.2161 g. Calculate the
percent P (30.974) in the sample? Ans 17.11%
