Phosphoric acid is neutralized by potassium hydroxide according to the following reaction:
rusak2 [61]
Balance the reaction first:

3KOH + H3PO4 —> K3PO4 + 3H2O

So for every mol of H3PO4, you need 3 mol of OH- to fully neutralize the acid, since H3PO4 is polyprotic.

0.0200 L KOH • (2.000 mol KOH / L KOH) • (1 mol H3PO4 / 3 mol KOH) = 0.0133 mol H3PO4

Divide this by the volume of H3PO4 to get the concentration.

0.0133 mol H3PO4 / 0.0250 L = 0.532 M H3PO4
