There is a rule in naming polyatomic anions containing oxygen. Those names ending in <em>–ate</em> are given to the most common oxyanion of an element. While those names ending in <em>–ite</em> are for those that contains fewer O atom for the same charge. Since PPO_{3} ^{3-} has fewer O atoms, its name ends in <em>–ite</em>. Thus, PPO_{3} ^{3-}  is phosphite while PPO_{4} ^{3-}  is phosphate.

Name three stars that are hotter than the sun
devlian [24]

Eta Carinae could be as large as 180 times the radius of the Sun, and its surface temperature is 36,000-40,000 Kelvin. Just for comparison, 40,000 Kelvin is about 72,000 degrees F. So it's the blue hypergiants, like Eta Carinae, which are probably the hottest stars in the Universe.
