<h3>What is a tetraphosphorus decoxide?</h3>
Tetraphosphorus decoxide, () is a non-metal oxide that gives acidic property when dissolved in water.
The name phosphorus decoxide can be interpreted as 4 phosphorus (P) atoms (‘Tetra’), bonds with 10 oxygen (O) atoms (‘Dec’) in a molecule. besides that, it is also known as phosphorus pentoxide.
It can be prepared by heating pure phosphorus with oxygen in blast furnace.

It is used as a dehydrating agent due to its week van der Waals dispersion forces. Thus, owing to give exothermic reaction when dissolved in watermore precisely, it is a white crystalline anhydrous (without water molecule) solid.
In granular form it can be also used as desiccant as well.
