Textbook QuestionWhite phosphorus reacts spontaneously with the oxygen in air to form P4O6. (b) When P4O6 is dissolved in water, it produces a H3PO3 molecule. H3PO3 has two forms, P forms 3 covalent bonds in the first form and P forms 5 covalent bonds in the second form. Draw two possible Lewis structures of H3PO3.757views
