When white phosphorous reacts with `NaOH`, it produces a gaseous mixture by the following parallel reaction. `P_(4) +3NaOH +3H_(2)O rarr 3NaH_(2)PO_(2)+PH_(3)uarr` `3P_(4)+8NaOH +8H_(2)O rarr 8NaH_(2)PO_(2)+2P_(2)H_(4)uarr` The correct thermal stability order isA. The lone pair of P is present at 3d orbitalB. the lone pair of P raised at almost pure p orbitalC. the lone pairs of p raised at `sp^(3)` hybrid orbitalD. the lone pair of p raised at almost pure s orbital |
