Question

How many moles of H3PO4 would produce 12 moles of water in this reaction? ЗKOH + H3PO4 K3PO4 + 3H20

​

Answer 1

Answer:4 moles of H₃PO₄

Explanation: did the test homie

Answer 2

4 moles of H₃PO₄

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

3KOH + H₃PO₄ → K₃PO₄ + 3H₂O

Number of moles of water = 12moles

Unknown:

Number of moles of H₃PO₄ = ?

Solution:

From the balanced reaction expression we see that;

3 moles of water is produced from 1 mole of H₃PO₄

So; 12 moles of water would be produced from
`(12)/(3)` = 4 moles of H₃PO₄
