Refreshments Application: Salt on your own Dinner Analogy 9 NHcuatro + and S 2? Al step step step three+ and PO4 3? Fe 2+ and PO4 3? Because the ammonium ion has a 1+ charge and the sulfide ion has a 2? charge, we need two ammonium ions to balance the charge on a single sulfide ion. Enclosing the formula for the ammonium ion in parentheses, we have (NH4)2S. The compound's name is ammonium sulfide. Because the ions have the same magnitude of charge, we need only one of each to balance the charges. The formula is AlPO4, and the name of the compound is aluminum phosphate. Neither charge is an exact multiple of the other, so we have to go to the least common multiple of six. To get…
