Current Question (ID: 10561)

Question:
$\text{The correct structure of pyrophosphoric acid is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{HO-P(=O)(OH)-OH}$
  • 2. $\text{H-P(=O)(OH)-OH}$
  • 3. $\text{H-P(=O)(OH)-H}$
  • 4. $\text{HO-P(=O)(OH)-O-P(=O)(OH)-OH}$ (Correct)
Solution:
$\text{Hint: Pyrophosphoric acid contains P-O-P bond.}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{The molecular formula of pyrophosphoric acid is H}_4\text{P}_2\text{O}_7\text{ and its structure is shown in the diagram.}$ $\text{Pyrophosphoric acid has the structure: (HO)}_2\text{P(=O)-O-P(=O)(OH)}_2$ $\text{Key structural features:}$ $\text{- Contains two phosphorus atoms connected by an oxygen bridge (P-O-P bond)}$ $\text{- Each phosphorus atom has a double bond to oxygen (P=O)}$ $\text{- Each phosphorus atom is bonded to two hydroxyl groups (OH)}$ $\text{- The structure can be written as HO-P(=O)(OH)-O-P(=O)(OH)-OH}$ $\text{Pyrophosphoric acid is an ingredient of a radiopharmaceutical used to visualize bone abnormalities and cardiovascular abnormalities and also used as an ingredient in some products to prevent iron deficiency anemia.}$
