I think the correct answer is option A. Pure substances can be considered as compounds. Compounds are molecules made of atoms from different elements held together by chemical bonds. Pure substances are these compounds that exist alone no other substance.

Phosphate, PO43−, is a polyatomic ion that can combine with any cation to form an ionic compound.
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Li3PO4 - correct

FePO4 - correct

Cu3PO4 - correct

Mg3(PO4)2 - correct

Explanation:

In order to answer this question we must be conversant with the idea of valency as well as the idea of writing formula of ionic substances.

Lithium has a valency of 1 while PO4^3- has a valency of 3 so the correct formula of lithium phosphate must be Li3PO4 after the exchange of valencies.

Iron III has a valency of 3 while the phosphate ion also has a valency of 3 so the subscripts cancel out and iron III phosphate is FePO4.

Copper I ion has a valency of 1 and the phosphate ion has a valency of 3. When they exchange valencies, the formula of the compound is Cu3PO4.

Magnesium has a valency of 2 while the phosphate ion has a valency of 3. The exchange of valency gives us the formula Mg3(PO4)2.

Enter a balanced equation for the reaction between aqueous lead (II) nitrite and aqueous lithium chloride to form solid lead (II
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + 2 LiNO₂(aq)

Explanation:

Let's consider the reaction between aqueous lead (II) nitrite and aqueous lithium chloride to form solid lead (II) chloride and aqueous lithium nitrite.

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + LiNO₂(aq)

This is a double displacement reaction. We will start balancing Cl by multiplying LiCl by 2.

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + LiNO₂(aq)

Now, we have to balance Li by multiplying LiNO₂ by 2.

Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + 2 LiNO₂(aq)

The equation is now balanced.
