The empirical formula for the compound is - P₂O₅
the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound.
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound.
we have to first find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula
molecular mass - 283.89 g/mol
mass of empirical formula - 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 283.89 g/mol / 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 1.000
therefore empirical formula = molecular formula
molecular formula - P₂O₅
1. True
2. False
3. False
4. True
5. True
6. True
7. All of the above
8. According to their reactivity with other substances
9. Standard temp and pressure
10. Flush your eyes in the eye flush for 15-20 minutes
