P2O3 is a white crystalline. Its melting point is 24 ̊C (75.2 ̊F), boiling point 173.1 ̊C (343.58 ̊F), density 2.14 g/cm3. P2O3 is toxic, corrosive. P2O3 reacts with water, the product is H3PO3.
Example Reactions:
• P2O3 + 3H2O = 2H3PO3
• P2O3 + O2 = P2O5
• 3N2O5 + 2H3PO3 = 6HNO3 + P2O3
• 2PH3 + 3O2 = P2O3 + 3H2O
