Hydrogen phosphate or monohydrogen phosphate (systematic name) is the inorganic ion with the formula [HPO 4] 2-. Its formula can also be written as [PO 3 (OH)] 2-. Together with dihydrogen phosphate, hydrogenphosphate occurs widely in natural systems. Their salts are used in fertilizers and in cooking. [1]
4] 3− is derived from phosphoric acid by the removal of three protons H +. Removal of one proton gives the dihydrogen phosphate ion [H 2 PO 4] − while removal of two protons gives the hydrogen phosphate ion [HPO 4] 2−. These names are also used for salts of those anions, such as ammonium dihydrogen phosphate and trisodium phosphate.
A general formula for such cyclic compounds is [HPO 3] x where x = number of phosphoric units in the molecule. When metaphosphoric acids lose their hydrogens as H +, cyclic anions called metaphosphates are formed. An example of a compound with such an anion is sodium hexametaphosphate (Na 6 P 6 O 18), used as a sequestrant and a food additive.

These symbols are based on systematic element names, which are now replaced by trivial (non-systematic) element names and symbols. Data is given in order of: atomic number , systematic symbol, systematic name; trivial symbol, trivial name.
