Solution

The correct option is B ammonium phosphomolybdate
Correct answer : (B)
$N a_{3} P O_{4} + 3 H N O_{3} \to H_{3} P O_{4} + 3 N a N O_{3}$

$H_{3} P O_{4} + 12 (N H_{4})_{2} M o O_{4} A m m o n i u m M o l y b d a t e + 21 H N O_{3} \to (N H_{4})_{3} P O_{4} 12 M o O_{3} A m m o n i u m P h o s p h o M o l y b d a t e + 21 N H_{4} N O_{3} + 12 H_{2} O$
