    Balanced chemical equation:

    3NaOH) aq) + H₃PO₄ (aq) → Na₃PO₄ (aq) + 3H₂O (l)

    Explanation:

    Chemical equation:

    NaOH) aq) + H₃PO₄ (aq) → Na₃PO₄ + H₂O

    Balanced chemical equation:

    3NaOH) aq) + H₃PO₄ (aq) → Na₃PO₄ (aq) + 3H₂O (l)

    How to balance:

    NaOH) aq) + H₃PO₄ (aq) → Na₃PO₄ + H₂O

    Na = 1 Na = 3

    O = 5 O = 5

    H = 4 H = 2

    P = 1 P = 1

    Next:

    3NaOH) aq) + H₃PO₄ (aq) → Na₃PO₄ + H₂O

    Na = 1 * 3 Na = 3

    O = 4 + 3=7 O = 5

    H = 3 + 3 = 6 H = 2

    P = 1 P = 1

    Next:

    3NaOH) aq) + H₃PO₄ (aq) → Na₃PO₄ + 3H₂O

    Na = 1 * 3 Na = 3

    O = 4 + 3=7 O = 4 + 3 = 7

    H = 3 + 3 = 6 H = 3 * 2 = 6

    P = 1 P = 1
