The arsenate is an ion with the chemical formula AsO3−4.[1] Bonding in arsenate consists of a central arsenic atom, with oxidation state +5, double bonded to one oxygen atom and single bonded to a further three oxygen atoms.[2] The four oxygen atoms orient around the arsenic atom in a tetrahedral geometry.[2] Resonance disperses the ion's −3 charge across all four oxygen atoms.
Arsenate readily reacts with metals to form arsenate metal compounds.[2][3] Arsenate is a moderate oxidizer and an electron acceptor, with an electrode potential of +0.56 V for its reduction to arsenite.[4] Due to arsenic having the same valency and similar atomic radius to phosphorus, arsenate shares similar geometry and reactivity with phosphate.[5] Arsenate can replace phosphate in biochemical reactions and is toxic to most organisms.[5][6]
