Question
part f
name the acid: h₃po₄(aq).
spell out the full name of the acid.
Brief Explanations
To name the acid \( \ce{H_3PO_4}(aq) \), we first identify the anion. The anion here is \( \ce{PO_4^{3-}} \), which is the phosphate ion. For oxyacids, when the anion ends in -ate, the acid name is formed by replacing -ate with -ic and adding the word acid. So, phosphate becomes phosphoric, and the acid is phosphoric acid.
