41 Given the following ions how many different compounds are possible List them with the correct name and formula class=

Respuesta :

Fe3(PO4)2   Iron(II) Phosphate

Fe3(PO3)2  iron(II) Phosphite

Fe(PO4)   Iron(III) Phosphate

FePO3    (Iron (iii) phosphite.

Explanation:

The ions given are

Fe^3+

Fe^2+

PO4^3-

PO3^3-

The ionic compounds or electrically neutral compounds that can be formed from the cations and anions given are :

Fe^3+ + PO3^3-= Fe3(PO4)2 the ions are balanced. the compound formed is Iron(II) Phosphate

Fe^2++PO4^3-=  Fe3(PO3)2  is iron(II)Phosphite

The compound formed is balanced with the charges provided on the ions.

Fe^3+ + PO4^3-= Fe(PO4)   the charge on the anion and cation are equal.

THE COMPOUND FORMED IS Iron(III) Phosphate

Fe^3++ PO3^3= FePO3

Fe^3+ + PO^3-= FePO3   (Iron (iii) phosphite.
