Don't know about cations and anions but I do grow carrots and onions if that's useful?

This is not really a legitimite question. When you say the NUMBER of cations and anions, not sure what you want. There will be 3 calcium cations liberated and 2 phosphate anions liberated. But having been given the 7.35 grams, maybe what you really want to know is how many MOLES of cations and anions. That would be different, and will depend on the molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2.
