A) Orthophosphorus acid
B) Orthophosphoric acid
C) Metaphosphoric acid
D) Pyrophosphoric acid
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
\[{{H}_{4}}{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\](pyrophosphoric acid) is tetrabasic because it gives four\[{{H}^{+}}\]ions. \[HO-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ OH \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} O \\ || \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{P}}}\,-O-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ OH \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} O \\ || \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{P}}}\,-OH\]
