The first step in the manufacturing process of phosphorous is the reaction below: 2 Ca3(PO4)2(solid) + 6 SiO2(solid) --> 6 CaSiO3(solid) + 1 P4O10(gas) The MW of Ca3(PO4)2(s) is 310.2 g/mole and the MW of SiO2(s) is 60.1 g/mole. If 20.0 g of Ca3(PO4)2(s) and 20.0 g of SiO2(s) are reacted, how many grams of P4O10(g) can be produced?
