Answer: The correct formula for Molybdenum (III) Carbonate is Mo_2(CO_3)_3

Explanation: The ionic compounds are formed by the combination of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions. The ionic compound formed must be neutral so the positive and negative charges are balanced.

Carbonate is a polyatomic ion with 2- charge and Molybdenum is a cation with 3+ charge, thus to form a neutral compound, 3 ions of carbonate ion must combine with 2 ions of molybdenum.
