Excess of calcium orthophosphate Ca3(PO4)2 is reacted with magnesium to form calcium phosphide Ca3P2 with magnesium oxide. Calcium phosphide on reacting with an excess of water liberate phosphine gas (PH3) along with calcium hydroxide. The evolved phosphine PH3 was burnt in the air (excess of oxygen ) to yield phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) along with water. How many grams of magnesium metaphosphate would be obtained, if 19.2g of magnesium were used for reducing calcium phosphate: 

( Atomic wt. of Mg=24, P=31 )

Ca3PO42+ 8MgCa3P2+ 8MgO
