Answer:

The answer to your question is: 639.6 g of NaH2PO4

Explanation:

Data

NaH2PO4   = ?

NaOH 36.29 ml of  0.250 M

MW Na2PO4 = (23 x 2) + (1 x 31) + (16 x 4) = 141 g

MW NaOH = (23 x 1) + (16 x 1) + (1 x 1) = 40 g

Molarity = # moles / volume

# moles = molarity x volume

# moles of NaOH = 0.25 x 36.29 = 9.07

                    1 mol of NaOH -------------------  40 g

                  9.07 moles        --------------------   x

        x = 9.07 x 40 / 1 = 362.9 g of NaOH

                           

             NaH2PO4(s) + 2 NaOH(aq)   →   Na3PO4(aq) +   2 H20(1)

        141 g of NaH2PO4  -----------------------   2(40) g of NaOH

             x                          ----------------------   362.9 g of NaOH

                  x = 362.9 (141) / 80

                 x = 639.6 g of NaH2PO4
