The first step in the synthesis of phosphoric acid is the reaction of phosphorus and oxygen to form diphosphorus pentoxide.

P_{4}(l) + 5 O_{2}(g)--->2 P_{2}O_{5} (g)

The second step in the synthesis of phosphoric acid is the reaction of diphosphorus with water to form phosphoric acid.

P_{2}O_{5}(g) + 3H_{2}O (l) --> 2H_{3}PO_{4}(aq)

The net chemical equation representing the formation of phosphoric acid from phosphorus, water and oxygen will be,

Step -1 : P_{4}(l) + 5O_{2}(g) ---> 2P_{2}O_{5}(g)

Step 2: P_{2}O_{5}(g) + 3 H_{2}O(l)-->2 H_{3}PO_{4}(aq)

Equation in step 2 must be multiplied by 2 in order to cancel diphosphorus pentoxide.

P_{4}(l) + 5O_{2}(g)---> 2P_{2}O_{5}

2 [P_{2}O_{5} (g) + 3 H_{2}O(l) --> 2 H_{3}PO_{4} (aq) ]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net: P_{4}(l) + 5 O_{2}(g) + 6 H_{2}O(l) --->   4H_{3}PO_{4}(aq)

Okay.. so I guess this is how it goes:

1. Rainforest
2. Temperate deciduous
3. Marine
4. Taiga
5. Tundra

Pls don't completely rely on it, this is my best guess and it's probably right except with Marine life and temperature deciduous. 70% I feel like it would temperate then marine. But check with urself again. Hope this helped..
