Detailed Solution

Phosphoric acid has the chemical formula H3PO4, where the hybridization of the phosphorus atom is sp3. Three hydroxyl groups surround the phosphorus atom, which is doubly linked to the oxygen atom. As a result, all of the electrons are involved in the hybridization process, which results in sp3 hybridization.

Thus, molecule in which hybridization of phosphorus is sp3 are,

H3PO4P4O6 and P4O10.
