Question 67

A student heats a sample of phosphorus in excess oxygen. It is found that 6.20 g of phosphorus reacts completely with 8.00 g of oxygen to form an oxide of phosphorus.

Calculate the empirical formula of this phosphorus oxide.

(Relative atomic masses: P=31.0\text{P} = 31.0P=31.0, O=16.0\text{O} = 16.0O=16.0)
