Abbreviation
editSodium is abbreviated Na on the periodic table. Also, phosphate is a polyatomic ion that is abbreviated PO4. I am not saying that the total abbreviation is NaAlPO4 though, because the charges have to balance with Na=+1, Al=+3, and PO4=-3. It almost seems that there would be multiple answers, but I am not an expert chemist though. Na3Al2(PO4)3? Na6Al(PO4)3? Na3Al(PO4)2? Remember, I am not an expert. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.60.219.225 (talk) 02:27, 21 October 2011 (UTC) NaH₁₄Al₃(PO₄)₈·4H₂O and Na₃H₁₅Al₂(PO₄)₈. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.71.9.119 (talk) 08:50, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
