Answer 1

ANSWER

$P_4+3O_2\text{ }\rightarrow2P_2O_3$

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given the reaction

$P_4+O_2\text{ }\rightarrow P_2O_3$

Looking at the above reaction, you will see that phosphorus is reacting with oxygen to produced phosphorus oxide.

To balance the equation, we will need one mole of phosphorus to react with 3 moles of oxygen to give 2 moles of phosphorus oxide
