    The formula of a phosphate of a metal M, is \[MP{{O}_{4}}\]. The formula of its nitrate will be

    A)  \[MN{{O}_{3}}\]         

    B)  \[M{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[M{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{3}}\]       

    D)  \[{{M}_{2}}{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Formula of metal phosphate is \[MP{{O}_{4}}\]. So, oxidation state of M is \[+III\]. \[\therefore \] Formula of metal nitrate is \[M{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{3}}\].
