Phosphorus pentoxide crystallizes in at least four forms or polymorphs.The most familiar one, a metastable form [1] (shown in the figure), comprises molecules of P 4 O 10.Weak van der Waals forces hold these molecules together in a hexagonal lattice (However, in spite of the high symmetry of the molecules, the crystal packing is not a close packing [2]).

Lewis structure of a water molecule. Lewis structures – also called Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDs) – are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.
POCl 3 can also act as a Lewis base, forming adducts with a variety of Lewis acids such as titanium tetrachloride: POCl 3 + TiCl 4 → POCl 3 ·TiCl 4. The aluminium chloride adduct (POCl 3 ·AlCl 3) is quite stable, and so POCl 3 can be used to remove AlCl 3 from reaction mixtures, for example at the end of a Friedel-Crafts reaction.

The general formula of a phosphoric acid is H n−2x+2 P n O 3n−x+1, where n is the number of phosphorus atoms and x is the number of fundamental cycles in the molecule's structure; that is, the minimum number of bonds that would have to be broken to eliminate all cycles.
Phosphoryl bromide is prepared by the reaction between phosphorus pentabromide and phosphorus pentoxide: [4] [5]. 3 PBr 5 + P 2 O 5 → 5 POBr 3. It can also be prepared via the slow addition of liquid bromine to phosphorus tribromide at 0 °C, followed by the slow addition of water and vacuum distillation of the resulting slurry.
Dinitrogen pentoxide (also known as nitrogen pentoxide or nitric anhydride) is the chemical compound with the formula N 2 O 5. It is one of the binary nitrogen oxides, a family of compounds that contain only nitrogen and oxygen. It exists as colourless crystals that sublime slightly above room temperature, yielding a colorless gas. [4]
