4 0

Answer:

WCl₂, WCl₄, WCl₅, WCl₆

Explanation:

Molar Mass of Tungsten = 184 g/mol

Mass of Chlorine = 35.5 g/mol

In the first compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 72.17 %

Upon solving;

72.17 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 254.95g

Mass of chlorine = 254.95 - 184 = 70.95 (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 2 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₂

In the second compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 56.45 %

Upon solving;

56.45 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 325.95 g

Mass of chlorine = 325.95 - 184 = 141.95g (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 4 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₄

In the third compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 50.91 %

Upon solving;

50.91 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 361.42 g

Mass of chlorine =  361.42 - 184 = 177.42 (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 5 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₅

In the fourth compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 46.39 %

Upon solving;

46.39 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 396.64 g

Mass of chlorine = 396.64 - 184 = 212.64 (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 6 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₆

6. Metals like aluminum can react with _______ to form coatings that _______ corrosion. A. iron; prevent
Andreas93 [3]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When aluminium reacts with oxygen, it results in the formation of a layer of aluminium oxide on its surface.

This outer layer gets corroded but it forms a protective coating for the inner layers that prevents from further corrosion.

Thus, we can conclude that metals like aluminum can react with oxygen to form coatings that prevent corrosion.

Where is almost all the mass of an atom​
VashaNatasha [74]
The nucleus!! This is made up of protons and neutrons that each weigh about 1 amu.

Electrons are not found in the nucleus and weigh almost nothing so chemistry in school doesn’t bother with them :)
