Phosphoric acid
Pyrophosphoric acid
Tripolyphosphoric acid
Orthophosphorous acid
Correct Option C
Tripolyphosphoric acid is used in the production of detergents and water treatment chemicals due to its ability to sequester calcium and magnesium ions. Hence option C is the correct answer.
Option (A) is incorrect because tripolyphosphoric acid is used in the production of detergents and water treatment chemicals due to its ability to sequester calcium and magnesium ions. Hence option A is incorrect.
Option (B) is incorrect because tripolyphosphoric acid is used in the production of detergents and water treatment chemicals due to its ability to sequester calcium and magnesium ions. Hence option B is incorrect.
Option (D) is incorrect because tripolyphosphoric acid is used in the production of detergents and water treatment chemicals due to its ability to sequester calcium and magnesium ions. Hence option D is incorrect.
