The unbalanced equation for the reaction ofP4S3with nitrate in aqueous acidic medium is given below.
P4S3+NO3-→H3PO4+SO42-+NO
The number of moles of water required per mol ofP4S3isx3, the value of x is

Answer:
8.00
Solution:

P4S3+NO3- →H3PO4+SO42-+NO
( P 4 S 3  + 28  H 2 O→4  H 3 PO 4  + 3  SO 4 2−  + 44  H + +38  e − ) × 3
( NO 3 −  + 4  H +  + 3  e − →NO + 2  H 2 O) × 38
∴ 3  P 4 S 3  + 38  NO 3 −  + 8  H 2 O + 20  H + →12  H 3 PO 4  + 9  SO 4 2−  + 38 NO
