natulia [17]
Answer is: <span>the coefficient of phosphoric acid is 12.
</span>Chemical reaction: P₄S₃ + NO₃⁻ + H⁺ → H₃PO₄ + SO₄⁻ + NO.
Reduction half reaction: NO₃⁻ + 4H⁺ + 3e⁻ → NO + 2H₂O /·38
Oxidation half reaction: P₄S₃ + 28H₂O → 4H₃PO₄ + 3SO₄²⁻ + 44H⁺ + 38e⁻ /·3.
38NO₃⁻ + 152H⁺ + 3P₄S₃ + 84H₂O → 38NO + 76H₂O + 12H₃PO₄ + 9SO₄²⁻ + 132H⁺.
Balnced chemical reaction:
3P₄S₃ + 38NO₃⁻ + 20H⁺ + 8H₂O → 12H₃PO₄ + 9SO₄²⁻ + 38NO.
