Open in App

Solution

Formula of phosphate salt of magnesium is ${Mg}_{3} {({PO}_{4})}_{2}$
Symbol of Magnesium ion is ${Mg}^{+ 2}$ . Symbol of Phosphate is ${PO}_{4}^{- 3}$
Formula is obtained by interchanging of the valency of Magnesium with Phosphate and vice versa by criss-cross method.
$Mg {PO}_{4} ↘ ↙ 2 3$
