M is a bivalent metal. Write down the steps to find the chemical formulae of its compound formed with the radicals, sulphate and phosphate

Dear Student,

a) As M is bivalent metal, therefore, we know that metal have a tendency to lose electrons so, the radicle form of M could be M2+
b) The possible formula of sulphate salts with M metal could be MSO4, as 'M' is bivalent as sulphate ion. The possible elements for M could be second group elements which include Be, Mg, Ca etc

c) The possible formula of sulphate salts with M metal could be M3(PO4)2​​​​​​. The possible elements for M could be second group elements which include Be, Mg, Ca etc
