Question

Stannic phosphate chemical formula and acidic and basic radical

Answer 1

Chemical formula of stannic acid is Sn3(PO4)4 where Sn3 is basic radical and (PO4)4 is acidic radical.

Answer 2

The chemical formula of Stannic phosphate is $\bold{\mathrm{Sn}_{3}\left(\mathrm{PO}_{4}\right)_{4}}$. This compound dissociated to form two ions, one basic and another acidic.

The basic ion formed is $\bold{\mathrm{Sn}_{3}}$ in oxidation state of $4^{+}$ and the acidic ion is $\bold{\mathrm{PO}_{4}}$ in oxidation state of $3^{-}$.

It is also known as Tin (IV) Phosphate and has a molecular weight of 736.02. It is used as a catalyst in the synthesis of acids like carbolic acids from various aromatic compounds by the process of oxidation.
