Answer:

Mass Phosphoric acid needed = 2.36 g

Explanation:

3CaCO₃ + 2H₃PO₄ => Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 3CO₂ + 3H₂O

Given 3.74 g Ca₃(PO₄)₂ => (3.74g/310.2g·mol⁻¹) = 0.0121 mol Ca₃(PO₄)₂

=> 0.0121 mol Ca₃(PO₄)₂ requires 2(0.0121) mol H₃PO₄ = 0.0242 mol H₃PO₄

=> 0.0242 mol H₃PO₄ = (0.0242mol)(98g·mol⁻¹) = 2.36 g H₃PO₄
