    Answer is: 2,6 moles of P₂O₅ are produced from the given amounts of phosphorus and oxygen.

    Chemical reaction: P₄ + 5O₂ → 2P₂O₅.

    m (P₄) = 186 g.

    n (P₄) = m (P₄) : M (P₄).

    n (P₄) = 186 g : 123,9 g/mol.

    n (P₄) = 1,5 mol.

    m (O₂) = 208 g.

    n (O₂) = 208 g : 32 g/mol.

    n (O₂) = 6,5 mol; limiting reactant.

    From chemical reaction: n (O₂) : n (P₂O₅) = 5 : 2.

    n (P₂O₅) = 2 · 6,5 mol : 5.

    n (P₂O₅) = 2,6 mol.
