### Formation of PCl₃ through Combination of P₄ and Cl₂The compound PCl₃ (phosphorus trichloride) can be formed by combining elemental phosphorus (P₄) and chlorine gas (Cl₂). This chemical reaction can be represented by the following equation:\[ P_4 + 6Cl_2 \rightarrow 4PCl_3 \]According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. Given the masses of the reactants, we can calculate the mass of the product formed.#### Problem StatementIf 28.5 grams of \( P_4 \) and 97.9 grams of \( Cl_2 \) combine to form \( PCl_3 \), how many grams of \( PCl_3 \) must form?\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \text{ grams } PCl_3 \]Use the law of conservation of mass to find your answer.

Given: Mass of P4= 28.5 g Mass of Cl2= 97.9 g
