Solution

The correct option is C 426 g
Balanced reaction:
P4S3+8O2P4O10+3SO2
Mass given: 440 g 384 g
No. of mole: 440/221 384/32
= 1.99 =12
Ratio of mole given 1.99/1 12/8
and stoichiometry =1.99 =1.5
coefficient :
As 1.5 is lower than 1.99 so, O2 is limiting reagent and product will
form according to no. of mole of O2 (given)
So, Mole produced of P4O10=18×12=1.5mole
And mass produced of P4O10=1.5×284=426g
