Question 5

A sample of 1.818 g of a vanadium oxide is completely reduced by heating with excess hydrogen gas. The reaction produces vanadium metal and 0.900 g of water.

What is the empirical formula of this vanadium oxide?

[Use relative atomic masses: H=1.0\text{H} = 1.0H=1.0, O=16.0\text{O} = 16.0O=16.0, V=50.9\text{V} = 50.9V=50.9]
