Answer:

B) P₂O₅

Step-by-step explanation:

A) MgCl₂

Molar mass of Mg = 24

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5

Molar mass = 24 + 2×35.5 = 95 g/mol

B) P₂O₅

Molar mass of P = 31

Molar mass of O = 16

Molar mass = 31 ×2 + 5×16 = 142 g/mol

C) BaCl₂

Molar mass of Ba = 137.33

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5

Molar mass = 137.33 + 2×35.5 = 208.33 g/mol

D) AlCl₃

Molar mass of Al = 27

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5

Molar mass = 27 + 3×35.5 = 133.5
