Question

Explanation:

Complete balanced equation for reaction between BaCI2 and Na3PO4 is

3 BaCl2 + 2Na3PO4 → 6 NaCl + Ba3 (PO4)2 Given, 0.5 mol of BaCl2 and 0.2 mol of Na3PO4, are mixed.

It is clear from the above equation that for 3 moles Of BaCl2, 2 moles of Na3PO4 is required

Thus, according to the given amounts, it can be said that Na3PO4 is the limiting reagent.

So, to find moles of Ba3(PO4)2, we must compare with the moles of Na3PO4.

2 mol of Na3PO4 ⇒ 1 mol f Ba3(PO­4)2

Thus, 0.2 mol of Na3PO4 ⇒ 0.1 mol f Ba3(PO­4)2

Final Answer:

Hence, the correct option is A: 0.1
