2) You use the chemical symbol for each kind of atom (element) and subscripts to the right of each symbol to tell the number of atoms of each element.

3) For example, O₂ means two atoms of oxygen. Al₂O₃ means two atoms of aluminum and 3 atoms of oxygen.

4) Therefore, PCl₃O means a ratio 1 : 3 : 1 for phosphorus, chlorine, and oxygen.

Hence, PCl₃O is the chemical formula of your compound.
