What is the oxidation state of P in the formula P2O5?
P is +3, O is -2
What is the chemical formula for phosporus?
Phosphorus may rarely be seen as P, but it will usually be seen as white or red phosphorus, both of which are P4. White P4 is a tetrahedral structure. Red P4 is a chain-like structure, where one of the bonds from white P4 is broken and joined with a neighboring P4.

How many atoms are there in the molecule of phospherous P4?
The answer is four. The molecular formula of any element or compund gives you the number of atoms of each element in a molecule. For phosphorus the most common form is P4 . The molecules are tetrahedral with a P atom at each apex.
Is P4 the chemical formula of phosphorous?
P is the chemical symbol for phosphorus. But you are correct in believing that the two most comman allotropes of phosphorus (red and white phosphorus) exist as P4. a tetrahedral arrangement of 4 phosphorus atoms. Another alloptrope is P2- Diphosphorus, which is highly reactive.
