Answer: The ion formed after the reduction of bromine is 
Explanation:
The electronic configuration of Sodium (Na) = ![[Ne]3s^1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E1)
The electronic configuration of Bromine (Br) = ![[Ar]3d^{10}4s^24p^5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BAr%5D3d%5E%7B10%7D4s%5E24p%5E5)
From the above configurations, Sodium ion will loose 1 electron in order to gain stable electronic configuration and that electron is accepted by the Bromine atom because it is 1 electron short of the stable electronic configuration.
(oxidation reaction)
(Reduction reaction)
Bromine atom is reduced to form
Reduction reactions are the reactions in which the element gain electrons.
Oxidation reactions are the reactions in which the element looses its electrons.
First, we have to find the chemical formula for zinc ion and phosphate ion.
Zinc ion is a cation, and its formula is Zn^2+,
This is because zinc atom requires 2 outer shell electrons to be removed in order to become stable.
On the other hand, phosphate ion is a anion, and its formula is PO4^3-.
In order to find the chemical formula of this ionic bond, we need to make sure their charges are balanced.
To do this, take 2+ and 3-, their least common multiple is 6, so in order to turn both charges into 6+ and 6-, we need to determine how many of that ion is needed.
So to make 2+ to 6+, we need 3 zinc ions ( +2 x 3 = 6).
And to make 3- to 6-, we need 2 phosphate ions (-3 x 2 = - 6).
Now we can just combine the chemical formulas with the number of that ion needed (you can ignore the charge)
Therefore, your answer should be Zn3(PO4)2.
