Calcium phosphate Ca3(PO4)2 It is sometimes used in fertilizers.

As one of the categories is citrus fruit I feel I should make an important note.

The term "lime" can refer to two very different things.

It can refer to a sour green citrus fruit but can also refer to Calcium Oxide.

A very alkaline substance often used to reduce the acidity of soil.

Where the single super phosphate use?

single super phosphate or superphosphate of lime, Ca(H 2 PO 4 ) 2 , is a compound produced by treating rock phosphate with sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, or a mixture of the two. It is the principal carrier of phosphate, the form of phosphorus usable by plants, and is one of the world's most important fertilizers. Ordinary superphosphate contains about 20% available phosphate; double superphosphate (also called treble superphosphate) contains 40%-50% available phosphate.


What is the compound formules for sodium phosphate?

Sodium phosphate is a generic term for the salts of sodium hydroxide and phosphoric acid (soluble in water). They are:sodium dihydrogen phosphate, commonly termed monosodium phosphate, (NaH2PO4), is also known as "sodium phosphate, monobasic".disodium hydrogen phosphate, commonly termed disodium phosphate, (Na2HPO4) is also known as "sodium phosphate, dibasic".Trisodium phosphate, commonly shortened to just sodium phosphate, (Na3PO4), is also known as "sodium phosphate, tribasic".sodium aluminium phosphate, (Na8Al2(OH)2(PO4)4).


How much phosphate meq is in sodium phosphate?

Sodium phosphate is available in different forms with varying amounts of phosphate. A common form, monobasic sodium phosphate, contains about 1.3 milliequivalents (meq) of phosphate per milligram of sodium phosphate. In a different form, dibasic sodium phosphate, there are about 2.16 meq of phosphate per milligram of sodium phosphate.

What is the mixture of super phosphate of lime?

Superphosphate of lime is a fertilizer containing a high concentration of phosphorus in the form of water-soluble phosphate. It is typically produced by treating phosphate rock with sulfuric acid to create a mixture of phosphoric acid and calcium sulfate. This mixture is then further processed to form the final product known as superphosphate of lime.
