Here if we inspect in chrome \text{ফসফরিক অ্যাসিড} width is 0, is it expected?

Steps to Reproduce:

$$\mathop {{H_3}P{O_3}}\limits_\text{ফসফরিক অ্যাসিড} + AgN{O_3} + {H_2}O \to \mathop {{H_3}P{O_4}}\limits_\text{ফসফরিক অ্যাসিড} + Ag \downarrow + \,2HN{O_3}$$

Research direction

Start by reproducing the supplied MathJax 3 expression containing \text{ফসফরিক অ্যাসিড} in Chrome and inspect the rendered element's width. Trace how the \limits text is measured, then verify whether a zero width is expected and confirm the behavior with a focused reproduction or test.
