polyatomic anion
Barium phosphate is ionic. It contains Ba2+ an PO43- ions. The posphate anion contains covalent bonds
The ionic compound for K3PO4 is potassium phosphate. It is formed by the combination of the potassium cation (K+) and the phosphate anion (PO4^3-).
The cation would be C6H5NH3+ and the anion would be C6H5NH-
The cation of potassium cyanide is potassium (K+) and the anion is cyanide (CN-).
Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
The PO4^3- ion is a polyatomic anion. It consists of a group of atoms with an overall negative charge.
Barium phosphate is ionic. It contains Ba2+ an PO43- ions. The posphate anion contains covalent bonds
The ionic compound for K3PO4 is potassium phosphate. It is formed by the combination of the potassium cation (K+) and the phosphate anion (PO4^3-).

Major Intracellular cation - K+ (Potassium) Major Extracellular cation - Na+ (Sodium) Major Intracellular anion - PO4+ (Phosphate) Major Extracellular anion - Cl- (Chloride)
The cation of potassium cyanide is potassium (K+) and the anion is cyanide (CN-).

Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Oxygen is neither a cation nor an anion. It is a neutral element.
Na3 3+, PO4 3-. Na is actually +, so Na3 is 3+.
CR is a cation.
