Answered by Anonymous

Valency of Fe is 3 and that of PO4 is also 3, so their valencies will get cancelled and the product will be FePO4.

nonokinamp90y58: Why did you pick ferric instead of ferrous

aiban1: Ferrous has a valency of 2 so if it was ferrous phosphate the formula would be Fe3(PO4)2

nonokinamp90y58: oh thx

nonokinamp90y58: And why is it "(PO4)2" ?

aiban1: Because the valency 2 has been interchange for both phosphorus and oxygen

nonokinamp90y58: ayy, thanks

Answer:

The compounds( $PO_{4}$ ) are neutral and does not show a valency.

Step-by-step explanation:

$PO_{4}$ is a polyatomic anion.

Fe shows multiple valency. In this compound the valency shown is -3.

So, cation and anion attract each other and form an ionic compound.

The compound ,that is $PO_{4}$ , is neutral and does not show a valency.
