    It is the first one. Be is an alkali earth metal, so its charge is 2+, while phosphate has a 3 - charge, making it answer 1.

    The correct formula for Beryllium phosphate is Be3 (PO4) 2 Beryllium has a charge of + 2 and phosphate has a charge of - 3. So to make the charge equal to zero, 3x + 2 = 6, and 2 x-3 = - 6 - 6 + + 6 = 0
