Respuesta :

Answer:

The stoichiometric coefficient of [tex]Mg(OH)_2=3[/tex]

The stoichiometric coefficient of [tex]K_3PO_4=2[/tex]

The stoichiometric coefficient of [tex]KOH=6[/tex]

The stoichiometric coefficient of [tex]Mg_3(PO_4)_2=1[/tex]

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction :

[tex]3Mg(OH)_2+2K_3PO_4\rightarrow 6KOH+Mg_3(PO_4)_2[/tex]

According to reaction, 3 moles of magnesium hydroxide reacts with 2 moles of potassium phosphate to give 6 moles potassium hydroxide and 1 mole of magnesium phosphate as products.
