Question

The incandescent white of a fireworks display is caused by the reaction of phosphorus (P4) withO2 to give P4010. Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction. If a skyrocket contained 7.25 g of P, what mass of O₂ is needed to react completely with the phosphorus? The P4010 produced in turn reacts with water to produce phosphoric acid H3PO4(aq), which is one of the compounds found in acid rain. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. When the P4010 produced from the skyrocket reacts completely with water, determine the theoretical yield of phosphoric acid in grams. Determine the volume of 0.500 M sodium hydroxide that would be required to-completely react with the generated phosphoric acid.
