On its own, the valency of phosphate is 3
The compound with formula Na3PO4 is named "sodium phosphate", "trisodium phosphate", "sodium ortho-phosphate", or "trisodium ortho-phosphate".
Sodium phosphate is a generic term for the salts of sodium hydroxide and phosphoric acid (soluble in water). They are:sodium dihydrogen phosphate, commonly termed monosodium phosphate, (NaH2PO4), is also known as "sodium phosphate, monobasic".disodium hydrogen phosphate, commonly termed disodium phosphate, (Na2HPO4) is also known as "sodium phosphate, dibasic".Trisodium phosphate, commonly shortened to just sodium phosphate, (Na3PO4), is also known as "sodium phosphate, tribasic".sodium aluminium phosphate, (Na8Al2(OH)2(PO4)4).
Sodium phosphate is available in different forms with varying amounts of phosphate. A common form, monobasic sodium phosphate, contains about 1.3 milliequivalents (meq) of phosphate per milligram of sodium phosphate. In a different form, dibasic sodium phosphate, there are about 2.16 meq of phosphate per milligram of sodium phosphate.
The compound name for K3PO2 is potassium hypophosphite.
The formula for ferric phosphate, also known as iron (III) phosphate, is FePO4.
Vanadium has the following valencies: 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Variable valencies are the valencies which can change e.g. Fe (iron) can either have the valency of 2 (Fe II) or 3 (Fe III)

CoCl2.6H2O has 6 water molecules attached as secondary valencies and 2 chlorine atoms are serving as the primary valencies. The secondary valencies are directional in nature and hence they lead to the geometry of it. The geometry of this compound is Octahedral with cobalt showing a coordination no. of 6.

Paired electrons in one of the subshell become unpaired and are promoted to higher subshell to create more than one valencies.
Possible valencies: +1, 0, -1.
Uranium can form in solutions ions with valencies 3,4,5,6.
Certain elements combine with other atoms, donating, accepting or sharing electrons in different proportions depending on the nature of the reaction. For example, iron combines with oxygen to form ferrous oxide as well as ferric oxide. In the formation of ferrous oxide, iron exhibits a valency of +2, whereas in ferric oxide, it has a valency of +3. This is termed variable valency
The common valences of cobalt are +2 and +3.
