Answer on Question #40474 – Chemistry – Other
Question:
For the following chemical reaction, how many moles of potassium phosphate (K3PO4) will be produced from 4 mol of potassium hydroxide (KOH)?
3KOH + H3PO4 ---> K3PO4 + 3H2O
Answer:
From this reaction we see: n (KOH)/n (K3PO4) = 3/1
So, n (K3PO4) = n (KOH)/3 = 4/3 = 1.333mol
