Write a Balanced Chemical Equation for the Reaction of Aqueous

Multiple Choice

Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of aqueous solutions of magnesium chloride and potassium phosphate.

A) MgCl₂(aq) + K₃PO₄(aq) → K₃Mg(s) + PO₄Cl₂(aq)
B) 3 MgCl₂(aq) + 2 K₃PO₄(aq) → 3 K₂Mg(s) + 2 PO₄Cl₃(aq)
C) MgCl(aq) + KPO₄(aq) → MgPO₄(s) + KCl(aq)
D) MgCl₂(aq) + 2 KPO₄(aq) → Mg(PO₄) ₂(s) + 2 KCl(aq)
E) 3 MgCl₂(aq) + 2 K₃PO₄(aq) → Mg₃(PO₄) ₂(s) + 6 KCl(aq)
