Phosphorus stays in tetra atom form in its elemental state and its formula is P4
Four. That is the meaning of the prefix "tetra".
Phosphorus exists in tetra-atomic state (P4)so 1 molecule of Phosphorous has 4 atomsso required no. of atoms = 7.52 X 6.023 X 1023 = 4.53 X 1024 atoms
The compound is tetraphosphorus trisulfide.
Tetra stands for four. So there are four chlorine atoms in a tetrachloride.
tetra means four, so four
Phosphorus tetra chloride
Diphosphorus tetraiodide, P2I4
Tetra means four so in a compound such as carbon tetrachloride there are four chlorine atoms
It is a inorganic chemical compound , containing 4(tetra) phosphorus and 6(hexa) sulphurs.

In the compound dichloride there would be two chlorine atoms. This is because the compound dichloride is a binary covalent compound and these compound always follow the prefixs such as di, tri, mono, etc.
