H3PO3 is a................ Basic acid....

`H_3PO_3` is a................ Basic acid.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the basicity of the acid \( H_3PO_3 \), we need to analyze its structure and the number of hydroxyl groups (\( OH \)) it contains. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the central atom The central atom in \( H_3PO_3 \) is phosphorus (P). **Hint**: Look for the atom that is bonded to multiple other atoms in the molecule. ### Step 2: Analyze the structure of \( H_3PO_3 \) ...
