    We are given with

    4.35 g Phosphoric acid

    5.25 g KOH

    3.15 g K3PO4 produced

    The reaction is

    H3PO4 + 3KOH = > K3PO4 + 3H2O

    First, convert masses into moles.

    Then, determine the limiting reactant.

    Next, determine the maximum amount of K3PO4 that can be produced from the limiting reactant.

    Lastly, calculate the percent yield by dividing the actual amount produced by the theoretical amount produced.
