MCQ
White phosphorus when boiled with strong solution of caustic soda produces
  • Phosphine
  • B
    Phosphoric acid
  • C
    Phosphorus acid
  • D
    No reaction

Answer

Correct option: A.
Phosphine
a
(a) ${P_4} + 3{H_2}O + 3NaOH\, \to $$\mathop {P{H_3}}\limits_{{\rm{Phosphine}}} \,\, + \mathop {3Na{H_2}P{O_2}}\limits_{{\rm{Sod}}{\rm{. hypophosphite}}} $
