Summary

At 25°, in oxygen at 600 mm. pressure, and in presence of water-vapour at a pressure of less than ·1 mm., the only product of oxidation of phosphorus trioxide was found to be phosphorus tetroxide, P2O4. The latter was identified by microscopic investigation of its crystals as well as by quantitative analysis.
