Answer:
FeCl₂ · 6H₂O = 234.75 g/mol
Explanation:
Iron (II) = Fe²⁺
Number between () indicates the oxidation state
Chloride = Cl⁻
Iron (II) chloride = FeCl₂
If we say hexahydrate, it means that our salt is hydrated by 6 molecules of water.
FeCl₂ · 6H₂O = Iron(II) chloride hexahydrate
Molar mass is = 55.85 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol . 2 + 6 . 18g/mol = 234.75 g/mol
We have just summed molar mass of Fe, plus Cl (x2), plus 6 H₂O
