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]).
Expressing resonance when drawing Lewis structures may be done either by drawing each of the possible resonance forms and placing double-headed arrows between them or by using dashed lines to represent the partial bonds (although the latter is a good representation of the resonance hybrid which is not, formally speaking, a Lewis structure).

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.
Solutions of dinitrogen pentoxide in nitric acid can be seen as nitric acid with more than 100% concentration. The phase diagram of the system H 2 O − N 2 O 5 shows the well-known negative azeotrope at 60% N 2 O 5 (that is, 70% HNO 3), a positive azeotrope at 85.7% N 2 O 5 (100% HNO 3), and another negative one at 87.5% N 2 O 5 ("102% HNO 3 ...
In chemistry, a phosphate is an anion, salt, functional group or ester derived from a phosphoric acid.It most commonly means orthophosphate, a derivative of orthophosphoric acid, a.k.a. phosphoric acid H 3 PO 4.
This trigonal bipyramidal structure persists in nonpolar solvents, such as CS 2 and CCl 4. [5] In the solid state PCl 5 is an ionic compound called tetrachlorophosphonium hexachlorophosphate formulated PCl + 4 PCl − 6. [6] Structure of solid phosphorus pentachloride, illustrating its autoionization at higher concentrations. [7]
The pyrophosphate anion has the structure P 2 O 4− 7, and is an acid anhydride of phosphate. It is unstable in aqueous solution and hydrolyzes into inorganic phosphate: P 2 O 4− 7 + H 2 O → 2 HPO 2− 4. or in biologists' shorthand notation: PP i + H 2 O → 2 P i + 2 H +
