Which of the following is a cyclic phosphate?
A. `H_(3)P_(3)O_(10)`
B. `H_(6)P_(4)O_(13)`
C. `H_(5)P_(5)O_(15)`
D. `H_(7)P_(5)O_(16)`
A. `H_(3)P_(3)O_(10)`
B. `H_(6)P_(4)O_(13)`
C. `H_(5)P_(5)O_(15)`
D. `H_(7)P_(5)O_(16)`
Correct Answer – C
Cyclic phosphate have a general formula of `(HPO_(3))_(n)` . Therefore, `H_(5)P_(5)O_(15)` represent a cyclic phosphate.
