Tetraphosphorus decaoxide looks correct BUT when a prefix ends in "a" or "o" and the anion name begins with a vowel, the "a" or "o" on the prefix is dropped to avoid having two vowels together in the name. So the name is tetraphosphorus decoxide.

The proper name for the compound P4O6 is Tetraphosphorus Hexoxide. It is also known as Phosphorus Trioxide.

P = Phosphorus

O = Oxygen

Its molar mass is 219.88 g mol−1

P4O10 is Phosphorus pentoxide. It's melting point is 340oC, which is well below room temperature of 25oC. This makes it a solid.

P and O are both nonmetals, this is a compound. It has covalent bonds because of them being nonmetals. There are no ions in covalent bonds. No, there are no ions in it.
