Answer:

c) CuPO₄

Explanation:

Copper commonly forms the cation Cu²⁺.

Phosphate is a polyatomic anion which can be represented by PO₄³⁻.

In order to have proper charge balance (an overall charge of 0), there must be three copper cations and two phosphate anions within the compound. As such, the correct ionic formula is Cu₃(PO₄)₂.

After mg ribbon is reacted completely with air, what is the reason to add some water and heat?

Vikentia [17]

The reason why some water and heat are added after Mg ribbon is reacted completely with air is to remove Mg3N2 as MgO.

Combustion reaction is a reaction in which a substance is completely burnt in oxygen. Magnesium ribbon can be converted to magnesium oxide by combustion in air.

The reaction is as follows; 2Mg(s) + O2 ----> 2MgO(s)

Since air contains nitrogen, Mg3N2 is also formed. Heat and water can be added to the reaction thereby converting magnesium nitride to magnesium oxide.
