Question

In which of the following are the symbols and names for the ions given correctly?

A.OH-:hydroxide

B.PO33-:phosphate;PO43-:phosphite

C.NH4-ammonia

D.C2H3O2-:acetate;C2O4-:oxalite

Answer 1

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The name of
`OH^(-)` ion is hydroxide.

Name of
`PO^(3-)_(3)` ion is phosphite.

Name of
`PO^(3-)_(4)` ion is phosphate.

Name of
`NH^(+)_(4)` ion is ammonia.

Name of
`C_(2)H_(3)O_(2)^(-)` ion is acetate.

Name of
`C_(2)O_(4)^(-)` ion is oxalate.

Thus, we can conclude that the symbols and names for the ions given correctly is OH-:hydroxide
