Nitric acid forms an oxide of nitrogen on reaction with `P_(4)O_(10)`. Write the reaction involved . Also write the resonating structures of the oxide of nitrogen formed.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`P_(4)O_(10)` is a strong dehydrating agent. It reacts with `HNO_(3)` to form metaphosphoric acid `(HPO_(3))` and dinitrogen pentoxide, `N_(2)O_(5)`
`4 HNO_(3) + P_(4)O_(10) rarr 4 HPO_(3) + 2 N_(2)O_(5)`
