NaOH(aq) + H3PO4 (aq) → Na3PO(aq) + H2O (l)

if 25.60 grams of NaOH is reacted with 20.80 grams of H3PO4,

a. How many grams of Na3PO4 are formed?
b. What is the limiting reactant?

c. How many grams of the excess reactant remains when the reaction is complete?

2. Potassium superoxide, KO2, is used in rebreathing masks to generate oxygen according to the reaction below. If the mask contains 0.150mol KOand 0.100ml mol water, how many moles of oxygen can be produced? What is the limiting reagent?
KO(s) + H2O (l) → KOH (s) + O2(g)
