Answer:
see explanation
Explanation:
To determine limiting reactant divide mole quantities of reactants by the respective coefficient in the balanced equation. The smaller value is the limiting reactant.
P₄ + 5O₂ => 2P₂O₅
12/1 = 12 15/5 = 3
O₂ is the limiting reactant. P₄ will be in excess when rxn stops.

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>
