Phosphorus pentoxide is a covalent compound.
P2O5 is covalent compound as the difference in electronegativity between P and O is below 1.7
Diphosphorus trioxide is a covalent compound.
It is a covalent bond. If you have a periodic table on you, just remember that if ALL elements in the compound are on the right side of the metalloid divide (the stairs/jagged line), then 99.9% of the time, you will have a covalent bond.
Tetraphosphorous decoxide would be the formal IUAPC name, though P2O5 is the empirical formulation called phosphorous pentoxide, however it is improper to reduce covalent bonds.

Molecular
A binary covalent compound is one that contains two substances joined by covalent bonds. For example, two nonmetals often join together to form covalent compounds. So, P2O5 (phosphorus pentoxide) is a binary covalent compound. H2O (dihydrogen monoxide) is another one. This is in contrast to binary ionic compounds, which are salts, and are formed by a metal combining with a nonmetal with ionic bonds.
P is phosphorus, O is oxygen P2O5 molecules have two (di-) P atoms, and five (pent-) O atoms, so the name of the compound is diphosphorus pentoxide.
