    To go from molecules, we first need to convert to moles and then convert to grams.

    To convert from molecules to moles, we need to divide by Avogadro's constant.

    1.15*10^21 molecules * (1 mole/6.022*10^23 molecules) = 0.0019097 moles

    To convert from moles to grams, we need to use the molar mass.

    The molar mass of P₂O₅ is (2*30.98) + (5*16.00) = 141.96

    You can find the molar mass using the periodic table.

    0.0019097 moles * (141.96 grams/1 mole) = 0.2711 grams.

    Since we have 3 significant digits in 1.15*10^21, that means our final answer is limited to 3 significant digits.

    Your final answer is 0.271 grams.
