There are a few examples of compounds where a phosphorus atom is surrounded by 4 oxygen atoms.
One simple example is the phosphate ion, PO43-
Another is P4O10, where every P atom is surrounded by 4 oxygen atoms
P4O9 where 3 P atoms are surrounded by 4 O atoms
P4O7 where just one P atom is surrounded by 4 O atoms

Why are oxgen atoms neutral?
oxygen atoms are neutral because it has the same number of electrons and protons, which is what makes an atom neutral. oxygen does react with some substances. pure oxygen reacts with fire Oxygen atoms are not neutral they are very reactive. Oxygen molecules are less reactive than lone atoms but as still highly reactive.
