Desert plants commonly have small wax coated leaves to prevent moisture and water from evaporating. It is an important feature in desert plants to adapt to the arid climate. The wax on the leaves also protect the leaves from the chilling temperature of the desert at night.

Answer:
23.8g of sodium phosphate are formed
Explanation:
Based on the reaction of sodium, Na, with phosphoric acid, H₃PO₄:
3Na + H₃PO₄ → Na₃PO₄ + 3/2 H₂
<em>3 moles of sodium produce 1 mole of sodium phosphate</em>
<em />
To solve this question we must find the moles of sodium in 10g. Using the chemical reaction we can find the moles -And the mass- of sodium phosphate produced, as follows:
<em>Moles Na -Molar mass: 22.99g/mol-</em>
10g * (1mol / 22.99g) = 0.435 moles Na
<em>Moles Na₃PO₄:</em>
0.435 moles Na * (1mol Na₃PO₄ / 3mol Na) = 0.145 moles Na₃PO₄
<em>Mass Na₃PO₄ -Molar mass: 163.94g/mol-</em>
0.145 moles Na₃PO₄ * (163.94g/mol) =
<h3>23.8g of sodium phosphate are formed</h3>
