    Chloride of metal is\[MC{{l}_{2}}\]. The formula of its phosphate will be

    A) \[{{M}_{2}}P{{O}_{4}}\]                    

    B) \[{{M}_{3}}{{\left( P{{O}_{4}} \right)}_{2}}~\]

    C) \[{{M}_{2}}{{\left( P{{O}_{4}} \right)}_{3}}\]              

    D) \[MP{{O}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Since the chloride of a metal is \[\,MC{{l}_{2}}\] therefore metal ?M? must be divalent i.e. \[{{M}^{2+}}\]. As a result the formula of its phosphate is \[{{M}_{3}}{{(P{{O}_{4}})}_{2}}\].
