Answer:


P_4+5O_2\rightarrow P_4O_(10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when we want to balance chemical reactions such as in this case, the idea is to equal to number of atoms of each element at each side of the equation according to the lay of conservation of mass, just as shown below:


P_4+5O_2\rightarrow P_4O_(10)

Because we have four phosphorous and ten oxygen atoms at each side.

Best regards!
