Asnwer :When 1 molecule of calcium phosphate is added to water, total 5 ions are formed 3 ions of Calcium([tex]Ca^{2+}[/tex]) and 2 ions of Phosphate([tex]PO_{4}^{3-}[/tex])
Explanation : When Calcium phosphate is added to water it gets dissociated into ions. Calcium phosphate ([tex]Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}[/tex]) dissociates into 3 ions of Calcium [tex]Ca^{2+}[/tex] and 2 ions of Phosphate [tex]PO_{4}^{3-}[/tex].
Dissociation equation of calcium phosphate is :
[tex]1 Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2} \leftrightarrow 3 Ca^{2+} + 2PO_{4}^{3-}[/tex]
From the dissociation equation we can conclude that total 5 ions are formed when 1 molecule of calcium phosphate is added to water.
