Question

blank 1 is the name of alpo₄. add your answer

Explanation:

To determine the name of \( \text{AlPO}_4 \), we use the rules for naming ionic compounds (or in this case, a compound with a polyatomic ion). Aluminum (\( \text{Al} \)) has a charge of \( +3 \), and the phosphate ion (\( \text{PO}_4^{3-} \)) has a charge of \( -3 \). The charges balance, so the name is formed by combining the name of the cation (aluminum) and the name of the anion (phosphate).

Answer:

Aluminum Phosphate
