The balanced equation for the reaction when calcium phosphate is heated with a mixture of sand and carbon is given by:

2 C a_{3} (P O_{4})_{2} + 6 S i O_{2} + 10 C \to 6 C a S i O_{3} + 10 C O + P_{4}

Solution

The correct option is B $2 C a_{3} (P O_{4})_{2} + 6 S i O_{2} + 10 C \to 6 C a S i O_{3} + 10 C O + P_{4}$
The balanced equation for the reaction when calcium phosphate is heated with a mixture of sand and carbon.

$2 C a_{3} (P O_{4})_{2} + 6 S i O_{2} + 10 C \to 6 C a S i O_{3} + 10 C O + P_{4}$

The products are calcium silicate, carbon monoxide and phosphorous.
