P4p10 is anhydrous form of phospheric acids . Why?

Asked by Geyly5415

Answer (1)

P4O10 is the anhydrous form of phosphoric acids because it is phosphorus pentoxide, which reacts with water to form phosphoric acid (H3PO4). When P4O10 combines with water, it hydrates and forms phosphoric acid. Thus, P4O10 is called the anhydride (or anhydrous form) of phosphoric acid since it is the acid without water.
