In this case you would use stoichiometric calculations to calculate that. The first step is to convert the potassium hydroxide (KOH) into moles. Then, use the stoichiometric ratios to find the mole quantity of potassium phosphate (K3PO4). nK3PO4=nKOH/3. After calculating the number of moles of K3PO4, calculate its mass using the molecuiar weight of K3PO4.
