(NH4)2MoO4 is used for the detection of_________
Detection of Phosphorus:-
Na3PO4(aq)Trisodiumphosphate+3HNO3(aq)Nitricacid⟶H3PO4(aq)Phosphoricacid+3NaNO3(aq)Sodiumnitrate
H3PO4(aq)Phosphoricacid+12(NH4)2MoO4(aq)Ammoniumorthomolybdate+21HNO3(aq)Nitricacid⟶(NH4)3PO4⋅12MoO3(s)Ammoniumphosphomolybdate↓+21NH4NO3(aq)Ammoniumnitrate+12N2O(g)Nitrousoxide
Therefore, (NH4)2MoO4 is used for the detection of Phosphorus.
