could you guys please help me with this question? 

Consider the following chemical reaction.
3 Zn(C2H:O2)>(aq) + 2 Na:PO.(aq) → 6 NaC:H3O2(aq) + Zn:(PO:):(s)
In the reaction of 20.5 grams of Zn(C2H:O2)2 with excess Na:PO4, would you
expect the total mass of Zn:(PO.)2 precipitated to be greater than, less than, or
equal to the mass of the zinc acetate?
A) zinc phosphate mass < zinc acetate
mass
B) zinc phosphate mass > zinc acetate mass
zinc phosphate mass = zinc acetate mass
