The answer is H3PO3.
The formula for phosphorus acid would be H3PO3 assuming that this compound is dissolved in water. <span>This acid is diprotic, not triprotic as might be suggested by this formula. Phosphorous acid is an intermediate in the preparation of other phosphorus compounds.</span>
I believe that it would be false. <span>The name of the ion P3- is not phosphoride ion but it is phosphide ion. </span><span>The </span>phosphide ion<span> is P </span>3−<span>, and </span>phosphides<span> of almost every metal in the periodic table are known. They exhibit a wide variety of chemical and physical properties. Hope this answers the question.</span>
Answer:
A cation is an ion with fewer electrons than protons. Therefore, it has a positive charge. The electric charge on a proton is equal in amount to the charge on an electron. Anions are atoms or radicals (groups of atoms), that have gained electrons. Since they now have more electrons than protons, anions have a negative charge. Halogens always form anions, alkali metals and alkaline earth metals always form cations. Most other metals form cations (e.g. iron, silver, nickel), whilst most other nonmetals typically form anions (e.g. oxygen, carbon, sulfur).
Explanation:
An anion and cation cannot be specifically found on the periodic table.
It would be false sulfur has 6
