Think resonance!
Impressive answer! But, well, I'm not sure about that resonance thing? ...C-O-P(+3)-O-C... So far it's OK! but P still has 3 fellow electrons to share. it does share two of them at once with another O. I understand till here. there is another O who wants to get 2 electrons shared, but only receives one: it needs more => so we call it a "negatively charges fellow oxygen", don't we? Well I'm well aware of my chemistry knowledge fading away, but you'll tell me an OA will do well for both??
