Balanced equation:
12 HClO4 + P4O10 = 4 H3PO4 + 6 Cl2O7
The answer is 699 moles perchloric acid.
P4O10 is an acidic compound because it reacts with water to form phosphoric acid (H3PO4).
P4O10 is acidic.
Look at the products. You should already know that one is bound to be water, H2O. You know that the OH comes from KOH, and the H comes from H3PO4. So ask yourself the question: How many OH and how many H are available? You can see that since you have three of one, you will also need three of the other, so you need 3 of the KOH, right? So this is the equation: 3KOH + H3PO4 -> 3H2O + K3PO4
P4O10 + 6H2O = 4H3PO4 Phosphorus oxide reacst with water to produce phosphoric acid.
P4 3o2 ---> 2po5
Dissolve into water and it actually reacts with the water to form H3PO4, phosphoric acid.
This equation is P4O10 + 6 H2O -> 4 H3PO4.
1 mole of P4O10 reacts with 6 moles of water to produce 4 moles of H3PO4. Therefore, 10.0 moles of water will produce (10/6)*4 moles of H3PO4. To convert moles to grams, multiply the number of moles by the molar mass of H3PO4.
Phosphoric acid (H3PO4) is formed when P4O10 reacts with water. This reaction releases a large amount of heat due to the highly exothermic nature of the reaction.
The chemical formula for Tetraphosphorus decaoxide is P4O10. The empirical formula is derived from the chemical formula by making the subscripts as low as possible while keeping all subscripts as integers. Therefore, the empirical formula from P4O10 is found by dividing both by two. The answer is P2O5.
