Strong reducing behaviour of H3PO2 is due to

Question

Strong reducing behaviour of H3PO2 is due to (A) low oxidation state of phosphorus (B) presence of two - OH groups and one P-H bond (C) presence of one - OH group and two P-H bonds (D) high electron gain enthalpy of phosphorus

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Strong reducing behaviour of H3PO2 All oxy-acid of phosphorus which contain P-H bond act as reductant. presence of one -OH group and two P-H bonds

Q. Strong reducing behaviour of $H_{3} P O_{2}$ is due to

low oxidation state of phosphorus

presence of two $- O H$ groups and one $P - H$ bond

presence of one $- O H$ group and two $P - H$ bonds

high electron gain enthalpy of phosphorus

Strong reducing behaviour of $H_{3} P O_{2}$
All oxy-acid of phosphorus which contain P-H bond act as reductant.
presence of one -OH group and two P-H bonds

Q. Strong reducing behaviour of H3​PO2​ is due to

low oxidation state of phosphorus

presence of two −OH groups and one P−H bond

presence of one −OH group and two P−H bonds

high electron gain enthalpy of phosphorus
