Popular questions
  1. How many formula units of magnesium phosphate will be produced from 35.8 g of sodium triphosphate?

    You can’t determine that from 35.8 g of pentasodium triphosphate alone—you need a balanced reaction and the amount of Mg2+ present, and in practice STPP mainly chelates magnesium rather than precipitating Mg3(PO4)2 unless it hydrolyzes to orthophosphate under specific conditions.

  2. How much sodium triphosphate in dish soap?

    Most household dishwashing liquids (and many automatic dishwasher detergents) now contain 0% phosphate due to regulations; some industrial/ institutional formulations can still include up to several–tens of percent STPP—check the product label or safety data sheet.

  3. What chemistry experiment to do with sodium triphosphate?

    Demonstrate water softening by comparing soap lather or measuring water hardness (EDTA titration) before and after adding a small, known amount of STPP to hard water.

  4. What is pentasodium triphosphate toothpaste?

    A toothpaste that includes pentasodium triphosphate (STPP) as a tartar‑control/whitening agent, binding calcium to reduce calculus and help lift surface stains; it’s used at low, safe levels for oral care.

  5. What is pentasodium triphosphate used for?

    As a food additive (E451i) it acts as a sequestrant, emulsifier and stabiliser to retain moisture and improve texture in processed meats/seafood and to control metal ions; outside food it’s widely used as a detergent builder and water softener, with an EFSA group ADI for phosphates of 40 mg/kg bw/day (as phosphorus).

  1. Girlsdoporn e452 who is she?

    That appears unrelated to the food additive E452; E452 refers to polyphosphates, synthetic phosphate salts used in foods as emulsifiers, stabilizers, humectants, and sequestrants.

  2. How does polyphosphates reduce affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen?

    Inorganic polyphosphate can bind to positively charged sites on deoxyhemoglobin and stabilize the low‑affinity T-state, shifting the oxygen dissociation curve to the right and lowering O2 affinity. This is a biochemical interaction and not a typical food-use effect of E452.

  3. How many states use polyphosphates?

    There’s no official tally; polyphosphates are used by many water utilities across numerous U.S. states and worldwide for iron/manganese sequestration and scale/corrosion control, depending on local water chemistry.

  4. How many states use polyphosphates to treat water?

    No centralized count exists, but hundreds of U.S. community water systems in dozens of states use phosphate-based treatments (often polyphosphates or poly/ortho blends) for metal sequestration and corrosion control. Usage changes over time with source water and regulations.

  5. How to remove polyphosphates from drinking water?

    Effective options include reverse osmosis or nanofiltration, and strong‑base anion exchange; utilities may also use coagulation/precipitation with iron or alum followed by filtration. Polyphosphates hydrolyze to orthophosphate over time, which the same processes remove; activated carbon and boiling are generally ineffective.
