This correct option is C.
10^-2 = 0.001
8.7 * 10^-2 = 8.7 * 0.001 = 0.0087
Thus, 8.7 * 10^-2 is equivalent to 0.0087.
First step is to balance the reaction equation. Hence we get
P4 + 5 O2 => 2 P2O5
Second, we calculate the amounts we start with
P4: 112 g = 112 g/ 124 g/mol – 0.903 mol
O2: 112 g = 112 g / 32 g/mol = 3.5 mol
Lastly, we calculate the amount of P2O5 produced.
2.5 mol of O2 will react with 0.7 mol of P2O5 to produce 1.4
mol of P2O5.
This is 1.4 * (31*2 + 16*5) = 198.8 g
