The equation itself is H30 is more thanNiP04 or it's four phases which also include Nip01 through Nip03. This is because the solvent dilutes as it dissolves into the H30.
the formula is Ni3(PO4)2 :) The correct answer is Ni PO4, the answer shown is for Nickel II phosphate.
NiPO4 is Nickel (III) Phospate. The PO4 is a polyatomic particle which is called phosphate and has a charge of 3- and in this example Ni has a charge of 1+, so the charges are switched giving Ni a 3+ charge with stays positive and is written in the middle of the two names. [edit] Not quite... the nomenclature Nickel (III) indicates the Nickel has a charge of 3+. Nickel will either have a charge of 2+ or 3+, it can not have a charge of 1+, so I don't know what the original answerer was saying with switching charges bumping up the ionization of the Nickel. Basically, Ni3+ + PO43- -> NiPO4 OR if you are dealing with Nickel (II) Ni2+ + PO43- -> Ni3(PO4)2 which is also Nickel Phosphate Any way, I just wanted to correct the original post, but the answer to the original question is Nickel Phosphate, or as the original poster stated Nickel (III) Phosphate. -Mike
