Oxidation state of P in H(4)P(2)O(5), H(...

Oxidation state of `P` in `H_(4)P_(2)O_(5), H_(4)P_(2)O_(6), H_(4)P_(2)O_(7)` are respectively

A

`+3,+5,+4`

B

`+5,+3,+4`

C

`+5,+4,+3`

D

`+3,+4,+5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
O.N of P in `H_(4)P_(2)O_(5)=4(+1)+2x+5(-2)=0`
or x=+3
O.N of p in `h_(4)P_(2)O_(6)=4(+1)+2x+6(-2)=0`
or x =+4
O.N of p in `H_(4)P_(2)O_(7)=4(+1)+2x+7(-2)=0`
or x=+5
