The answers are: P2O5 (empirical formula) and P4O10 (molecular formula). See solution below:
Mass of P = 1.000 g
Mass of O = mass of phosphorus oxide - mass of P
= 2.291 - 1.000 = 1.291 g
Since moles = mass/molar mass
Moles of P : O = 1.000/30.974 : 1.291/15.999
= 0.03229 : 0.08069
= 2 : 5
Empirical formula is P2O5
Let the molecular formula be P2aO5a
Molar mass = 30.974 x 2a + 15.999 x 5a = 282
141.943a = 282 => a = 2
Molecular formula is P4O10
