d) (1) Phosphate rock (2) orthophosphoric acid

The formula of triple superphosphate fertilizer, shortly called as TSP, is Ca(H2PO4)2. Manufacturers make nongranular TSP typically by reacting finely ground phosphate rock with liquid phosphoric acid in a cone-type mixer. Granular TSP is made similarly, but the resulting slurry is sprayed as a coating onto small particles to build granules of the desired size.
