6
2) K 2+ H+, and PO43-
9
3) K+, H+, p3-, and O2-
4) K2H3+ and PO43-
5) K2HPO4 is not ionic.

K⁺ and HPO₄²⁻ ions are present in K₂HPO₄

Explanation:

K₂HPO₄ consist of anion and cation such as HPO₄²⁻ and  K⁺. We can see that the charge on HPO₄²⁻ is negative 2. Thus inroder to balance the charge and to neutral the compound two potassium ions are attached because the charge on one atom of potassium is K⁺.
