Best Answer

The name of compound (NH4)PO4 is Ammonium Phosphate .


NH4 and PO4 are both polyatomic ions

NH4(ammonium) has a positive 1 charge, and is the cation
PO4(phosphate) has a negative three charge, and is the anion

In order to balance the ionic compound, you need an over all charge of zero(or neutral charge). You have a negative three charge on phosphate so you need a positive three charge of ammonium. Therefore, you have 3 NH4 and 1 PO4
