The reaction of white phosphorus with aq...

The reaction of white phosphorus with aqueous `NaOH` gives phosphine along with another phosphorus containing compound. The reacation type, the oxidation states of phosphorus in phosphine and the other product are respectvely:

A

redox reaction ,-3 and -5

B

redox reaction , +3 and +5

C

disproportionation reaction ,-3 and +1

D

disproportionation reaction , -3 and +3

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

`3CI_(2)rarr6NaOHrarr5NaCI+NaH_(2)PO_(2)`
O.N of in `P_(4)` decreases form 0 to -3 in `PH_(3)` and increases from 0 to +1 in `NaH_(2)PO_(2)` therefore it is a disproportionation reaction
