Calculate the number of electrons, protons and neutrons in (i) Phosphorus (P) atom (ii) phosphate ion. (PO_(4)^(3-)) Mass numbers : P=31, O=16 Atomic numbers : P = 15, O=8

In a gravimetric determination of P , an aqueous solution of dihydrogen phosphate ion [H_(2)PO_(4)^(-)] is treated with a mixture of ammonium and magnesium ions to precipitate magnesium ammonium phosphate, [Mg(NH_(4))PO_(4).6H_(2)O] . This is heated and decomposed to magnesium pyrophosphate [Mg_(2)P_(2)O_(7)] , which is weighed. A solution of H_(2)PO_(4)^(-) yielded 1.054 g of Mg_(2)P_(2)O_(7) . What weight of NaH_(2)PO_(4) was present originally? (Na=23, H=1, P= 31, O=16,Mg=24)
