Explanation:
First, work out the formula for magnesium phosphate: The phosphate ion is PO4 3– and the magnesium ion is Mg2+ (magnesium belongs to group 2 of the periodic table and loses its two valence electrons when ionized). By balancing the charges, magnesium phosphate will have the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2.
