The smallest atomio radius is helium
The balanced chemical equation is :
5P₄ + 36OH → 12HPO₃⁻² (aq) + 8PH₃ (acidic)
Here the oxidation number of P changed from 0 to -3 in PH₃ and increases from 0 to +3 in HPO₃⁻². When P₄ changes to PH₃ reduction reaction is taking place as there is addition of hydrogen and when P₄ changes to HPO₃⁻² oxidation takes place as there is addition of oxygen.
Thus clearly both reduction and oxidation are taking place.
Thus, we can infer that here P₄ is both oxidizing as well as reducing agent.

Answer:
grams O₂ = 134 grams
Explanation:
PV = nRT => n = PV/RT
P = 8.15atm
V = 12.2 Liters
R = 0.08206L·atm/mol·K
T = 16.0°C + 273 = 289K
n = (8.15atm)(12.2L)/(0.08206L·atm/mol·K)(289K) = 4.2 moles O₂
grams O₂ = 4.2 moles O₂ x 32g/mol = 134 grams O₂
