Question

The number of non-ionisable hydrogen atoms present in the final product obtained from the hydrolysis of  is:

Canvas Classes · Accepted Answer

Complete hydrolysis of :

Product =  (orthophosphoric acid)

Structure of : P has 3 P–OH groups and 1 P=O group.
- All 3 H atoms are in P–OH groups → all are ionisable
- There are no P–H bonds → no non-ionisable H atoms

Number of non-ionisable H = 0

Answer: Option (1) — 0
