Oxidation no. of P in H(4)P(2)O(5), H(4)...

Oxidation no. of `P` in `H_(4)P_(2)O_(5)`, `H_(4)P_(2)O_(6)`, and `H_(4)P_(2)O_(7)` are respectively

A

`+3,+5 and +4`

B

`+5, +3 and +4`

C

`+5,+4 and +3`

D

`+3, +4 and +5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The oxidation state can be calculated as
`H_(4)P_(2)O_(5), +4+2x+5(-2)=0`
`2x-6=0`
`x=+3`
`H_(4)P_(2)O_(6),+4+2x+6(-2)=0`
`2x-8=0`
`x= +4`
`H_(4)P_(2)O_(7),+4+2x+7(-2)=0`
`x=+5`
