In order to balance this, you have to count
each element where the elements in the reactants side and the product side
should have equal number of molecules. The balanced reaction is as follows:
KOH + H3PO4 = KH2PO4 +H2O
Answer:
i also had this question:P
Explanation:
Answer:
b) +2 and +3.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, given the molecular formulas:

And:

We can relate the subscripts with the oxidation states by knowing that they are crossed when the compound is formed, for that reason, we notice that oxygen oxidation state should be -2 for both cases and the oxidation state of X in the first formula must be +2 since both X and O has one as their subscript as they were simplified:

Moreover, for the second case the oxidation state of X should be +3 in order to obtain 3 as the subscript of oxygen:

Thus, answer is b)+2 and +3
Best regards.
I think the answer is A. Hope that helped :)
