Phosporic acid (H3PO4) is a key ingredient in soft drinks that gives it a sharper flavor. One way to produce thic acid is with the aid of mineral fluoroapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F following this reaction  Ca5(PO4)3F + 5H2SO4 -> 3H3PO4 + 5CaSO4 + HF If 24.5 g Ca5(PO4)3F is mixed with 89.7 g H2SO4, how much H3PO4 will form?
