4 0

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since the given formula is 3Mg_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}. According to cross method formula, magnesium has +2 charge so, PO_{4} is multiplied by 2.

Thus, 1 molecule of magnesium phosphate will contain 2 atoms of phosphorus.

Therefore, three molecules of magnesium phosphate contains following number of atoms.

  • Mg = 9
  • P = 6
  • O = 24

Hence, we can conclude that there are 6 atoms of phosphorus in three molecules of magnesium phosphate, 3Mg_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}.
