Answer: The ionic formula of compound is CoP and the name is cobalt phosphide.

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here element Co is having an oxidation state of +3 called as Co^{3+} cation and phosphprous forms P^{3-} anion with oxidation state of -3. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral CoP

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first followed by the oxidation state of metal in roman numerals in square brackets.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

Thus the name of CoP is cobalt phosphide.

What is the economic importance of phosphorus in Canada or elsewhere in the world?
vladimir1956 [14]

white phosphorus is used in flares and explosives, so may be important in warfare, etc. Red phosphorus is used in matches (side of matches) and in fertilizers which are essential to growing plants. I don't know if that is economically important, but there are many ways that phosphorus benifit the economy. One downside on the economy is that phosphorus is one of the main ingredients in meth, which of course causes trouble for the economy ( law enforcement, medical, etc. )
