The p-Block Elements
Nitrogen is small in size and have ability to form multiple bonding with oxygen.thus oxides of nitrogen have open chain structures. For example N2O5.
On other hand phosphorus due to its larger size does not form this type of multiple bonds with oxygen but instead forms single bonds and forms oxides with cage like structure.
For example P4O10.
