Phosphorus acid on heating gives the following products 4 H 3 P O 3 → Δ 3 H 3 P O 4 + P H 3 The above reaction is an example of, oxidation, thermal decomposition, disproportionation, reduction

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

4 H 3 P O 3 → Δ 3 H 3 P O 4 + P H 3 In the reaction, the acid in +3 oxidation state of P tends to disproportionate to higher (+5) and lower (-3) oxidation state in H 3 P O 4 and P H 3 respectively.
