A compound is found to contain 3.1% Hydrogen, 65.3% Oxygen and 31.6% Phosphorus. Work out its empirical formula.

To answer this question, we need to know the relative number of atoms of each element present. This can be calculated by dividing the amount of an element present in the sample by the relative masses of t...
