    Answer: Three (3) molecules of water (H2O)

    Explanation:

    Phosphoric acid = H3PO4

    Potassium hydroxide = KOH

    Chemical equation is as follows:

    H3PO4 + 2KOH - -> K2HPO4 + 2H2O (incomplete neutralization yields 2 molecules of water)

    K2HPO4 + KOH - -> K3PO4 + H2O (complete neutralization 1 molecule of water)

    Total water molecules released is 3
