Solution

The equilibrium constant expression for the given reaction is written as follows:

K = [H+]^3 [PO4^3-] / [H3PO4]

Where:

  • K is the equilibrium constant.
  • [H+], [PO4^3-], and [H3PO4] are the molar concentrations of H+, PO4^3-, and H3PO4 respectively at equilibrium.
  • The exponents on the concentrations (in this case, 3 on [H+]) correspond to their stoichiometric coefficients in the balanced chemical equation.
