The reaction of P(4) with X leads select...

The reaction of `P_(4)` with X leads selectively to `P_(4)O_(6)` The X is :

A

Dry `O_(2)`

B

A mixture of `O_(2) and N_(2)`

C

Moist `O_(2)`

D

`O_(2)` in the presence of aqueous NaOH

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`P_(4) + 3O_(2) overset(O_(2)+N_(2))rarr P_(4)O_(6)`
`N_(2)` prevents further oxidation of `P_(4)O_(6)` to `P_(4)O_(10)`.
