Cu3(PO4)2 is a green powder at room temperature. It is insoluable in water. Cu3(PO4)2 may cause burns to eye and skin. It may cause digestive tract irratation if swallowed.
Example Reactions:
• 3CuSO4 + 2Na3PO4 = Cu3(PO4)2↓ + 3Na2SO4
• 3Cu(NO3)2 + 2Na3PO4 = Cu3(PO4)2↓ + 6NaNO3
• 3CuCl2 + 2Na3PO4 = 6NaCl + Cu3(PO4)2↓
• 3Cu(HCO3)2 + 2H3PO4 = Cu3(PO4)2↓ + 6H2O + 6CO2
• 3CuBr2 + 2K3PO4 = Cu3(PO4)2↓ + 6KBr
• 2AlPO4 + 3CuO = Al2O3 + Cu3(PO4)2↓
• 3Cu(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 = Cu3(PO4)2↓ + 6H2O
• 3Cu(NO3)2 + 2(NH4)3PO4 = Cu3(PO4)2↓ + 6NH4NO3
• 3Cu(NO3)2 + 2K3PO4 = Cu3(PO4)2↓ + 6KNO3
• 2Fe + Cu3(PO4)2 = 2FePO4↓ + 3Cu
