Sodium phosphate is the name, but it is NOT an acid, rather a base!
The chemical reaction is:H3PO4 + 3 NaOH + Na3PO4 + 3 H2O
Na3PO4, or sodium phosphate, is described as a salt of H3PO4 (phosphoric acid) because it is formed by the neutralization reaction between the acid and a strong base, in this case, sodium hydroxide (NaOH). During this reaction, the hydrogen ions (H⁺) from H3PO4 are replaced by sodium ions (Na⁺), resulting in the formation of the salt and water. This process exemplifies the typical behavior of acids and bases, where the acid donates protons and the base provides hydroxide ions. Thus, Na3PO4 retains the phosphate (PO4) group characteristic of phosphoric acid, classifying it as a salt.
soluble
The products of the dehydration reaction between Na3PO4 and 12 H2O would be NaPO3 and 11 H2O molecules. Water (H2O) will be eliminated as a byproduct, leaving behind the dehydrated form of sodium phosphate, NaPO3.
The chemical name of oxalic acid is ethanedioic acid.
They are salts of the phosphoric acid; ex.: Na3PO4.
The correct name of the compound Na3PO4 is sodium phosphate.
Phosphoric acid (H3PO4) is a weak acid, while sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong base. When mixed, they undergo a neutralization reaction to form water and sodium phosphate (Na3PO4). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is H3PO4 + 3NaOH → Na3PO4 + 3H2O.
Usually these reaction are done with a substantial excess of NaOH. You would getH3PO4 + 3NaOH --> Na3PO4(aq) + 3HOH.
Sodium phosphate (Na3PO4) is a basic salt because it contains the conjugate base of a weak acid (phosphoric acid, H3PO4). When dissolved in water, it will form a basic solution due to the presence of hydroxide ions.
Trisodium Phosphate
Na3PO4+H2O->NaOH+H3PO4 just balance it.
The name trisodium phosphate is incorrect for the compound Na3PO4 because trisodium phosphate actually refers to the compound Na3PO4.12H2O, which contains water molecules in addition to the phosphate group. The correct name for the compound Na3PO4 is sodium phosphate.
H3PO4Is phosphoric acid, a strong acid. This would have to react with a strong base, such as NaOH, to produce a salt.3NaOH + H3PO4 --> Na3PO4 + 3H2OThe salt produced is sodium phosphate.
3NaOH + H3PO4 -> Na3PO4 +3H2O The usual salt, sodium phosphate, and water.
The chemical reaction is:H3PO4 + 3 NaOH + Na3PO4 + 3 H2O
Sodium Phosphate, though the actual formula is Na3PO4
