    Which one of the following is triple superphosphate?

    A)  \[[C{{a}_{3}}{{(P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}.Ca{{F}_{2}}]\]

    B)  \[Ca{{({{H}_{2}}P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}+CaS{{O}_{4}}\]

    C)  \[Ca{{({{H}_{2}}P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[C{{a}_{3}}{{(P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}\]

    E)  \[CaH{{P}_{4}}.2{{H}_{2}}O\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[Ca{{({{H}_{2}}P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}\]is called triple superphosphate. It is produced by the action of phosphoric acid and calcium phosphate. \[Ca{{(P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}+4{{H}_{3}}P{{O}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}\] \[\underset{triple\text{ }superphosphate}{\mathop{3Ca{{({{H}_{2}}P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}}}\,\]
