\mathrm{P_4(1.45 \mathrm{~g})=\frac{1.45}{31 \times 4} \text { moles of } P_4}

\mathrm{\text { 5.07g of } \mathrm{O}_2=\frac{5.07}{32} \text { moles of } \mathrm{O}_2}

\mathrm{\mathrm{P}_4+5 \mathrm{O}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{P}_4 \mathrm{O}_{10}}

From 5 moles of \mathrm{Q_2}, moles of \mathrm{P_4 q_0} obtain \mathrm{=\frac{1}{5} \times \frac{5.07}{32}}

                                                                      \mathrm{ =0.03169 \text { moles } }
from 1 moles of \mathrm{P_4}, moles of \mathrm{P_4 q_0} obtained \mathrm{=1} mol

from \mathrm{\frac{1.45}{31 \times 4}} moles of \mathrm{P_4, P_4 O_{10}} obtained \mathrm{=\frac{1.45}{31 \times 4}}

                                                                       \mathrm{ =0.0169 \text { moles } }
\mathrm{\therefore P_4} is the limiting reagent

Amount of \mathrm{P_4 O_{10}} obtained \mathrm{0.01169} moles
            

                          \mathrm{ \begin{aligned} & =0.01169 \times 284 \\ & =3.32 \mathrm{~g} . \end{aligned} }
