Hypophosphorus Acid
H3PO2 is known as phosphorous acid.
The oxidation number for H in H3PO2 is +1, as it is in compounds with nonmetals. The oxidation number for P in H3PO2 is +1, as the sum of oxidation numbers in a compound is zero.
Formula: H3PO2 But it is a monobasic acid.

It is H3PO2 .
H3PO2 is monoprotic because it has one ionizable hydrogen atom. When it dissociates in solution, it releases one H+ ion.
H3PO2 is the chemical formula for phosphorous acid. It is a diprotic acid commonly used in the production of pharmaceuticals, flame-retardants, and metal surface treatment.
The chemical formula of calcium hypophosphite is Ca(H2PO2)2.
The oxoacids of phosphorus include ones with formulas H3PO4, H3PO3, H3PO2, HPO3, and H4P2O7.
H3PO2 a phosphorus oxoacidand a powerful reducing agent, HOP(O)H2 exists in equilibrium with the minor tautomer HP(OH)2
Oh, dude, hypo phosphorus acid is like this super chill acid that's technically called phosphinic acid. It's got the chemical formula H3PO2, and it's used in some industrial processes and stuff. But like, don't worry too much about it unless you're a chemistry nerd or something.
It is actually called HYPOPHOSPHOROUS acid (H3PO2). Its official name (by IUPAC) is phosphinic acid. It is a weak, monoprototic acid, chemically also be 'written' as HOP(O)H2 , so not triprotic like its big brother phosphorous acid H3PO3 .We can prepare it by oxidizing Phosphine (PH3), in Iodine (I2) with water according to the following equation:PH3 + 2 I2 + 2 H2O ----> H3PO2 + 4 HI
