Explanation:
Step 1: Define
[RxN - Unbalanced] PCl₃ + H₂O → HCl + H₃PO₃
↓
[RxN - Balanced] PCl₃ + 3H₂O → 3HCl + H₃PO₃
[Given] 53.6 g H₂O
[Solve] x g H₃PO₃
Step 2: Identify Conversions
[RxN] 3 mol H₂O → 1 mol H₃PO₃
[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of P - 30.97 g/mol
Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol
Molar Mass of H₃PO₃ - 3(1.01) + 30.97 + 3(16.00) = 82.00 g/mol
Step 3: Stoich
- [S - DA] Set up: [tex]\displaystyle 53.6 \ g \ H_2O(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2O}{18.02 \ g \ H_2O})(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_3PO_3}{3 \ mol \ H_2O})(\frac{82.00 \ g \ H_3PO_3}{1 \ mol \ H_3PO_3})[/tex]
- [S - DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out unit]: [tex]\displaystyle 81.3023 \ g \ H_3PO_3[/tex]
Step 4: Check
Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.
81.3023 g H₃PO₃ ≈ 81.3 g H₃PO₃
