Answer:


3Li_2SO_4+2K_3PO_4\rightarrow 2Li_3PO_4+3K_2SO_4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when lithium sulfate and potassium phosphate solutions are mixed to yield lithium phosphate and potassium sulfate, the following chemical equation comes up:


Li_2SO_4+K_3PO_4\rightarrow Li_3PO_4+K_2SO_4

However, as atoms are not balanced we apply the inspection method to obtain:


3Li_2SO_4+2K_3PO_4\rightarrow 2Li_3PO_4+3K_2SO_4

Best regards!
