    ACID + BASE equations...and H+ concentrations.

    Equal volumes of equimolar solutions: H3PO4 + NaOH --> NaH2PO4(aq) + H2O As the relative amount of OH- increases, you could get H3PO4 + 2NaOH --> Na2HPO4(aq) + 2H2O And with a substantial excess of NaOH, then you get H3PO4 + 3NaOH --> Na3PO4(aq) + 3H2O Do we need to know all three...
