Hypophosphorous acid, H3PO2, has the structure (HO)PH2O. in which two H atoms are bonded to the P atom, and one H atom is bonded to an O atom.  For each bond to an H atom, decide whether it is polar or nonpolar.  Assume that only polar-bonded H atoms are acidic.  Write the balanced equation for the complete neutralization of hypophosphorous acid with sodium hydroxide.  An 800.0 ml sample of H3PO2 requires 22.00 mL of 0.7850 M NaOH for complete neutralization.  What is the molarity of the H3PO2 solution?  Electronegativity P = 2.19. H =2.20, O= 3.44
