State the number of atoms present in each of the following: (a) PO43- (b) P2O5 (c) H2SO4 (d) SO4-2

(a) PO43- P = 1 atom O = 4 atoms Total atoms = 1 + 4 = 5 atoms (b) P2O5 P = 2 atoms O = 5 atoms Total atoms = 2 + 5 = 7 atoms (c) H2SO4 H = 2 atoms S = 1 atom O = 4 atoms Total atoms = 2 + 1 + 4 = 7 atoms (d) SO4-2 S = 1 atom O = 4 atoms Total atoms = 1 + 4 = 5 atoms

Answer

(a) PO₄^3-

P = 1 atom

O = 4 atoms

Total atoms = 1 + 4 = 5 atoms

(b) P₂O₅

P = 2 atoms

O = 5 atoms

Total atoms = 2 + 5 = 7 atoms

H = 2 atoms

S = 1 atom

O = 4 atoms

Total atoms = 2 + 1 + 4 = 7 atoms

(d) SO₄^-2

S = 1 atom

O = 4 atoms

Total atoms = 1 + 4 = 5 atoms
