6 is most likely, hence the name hexafluorine
Sulfur hexachloride is an inorganic compound consisting of two different elements. The prefix hexa indicates that there are six chloride atoms. Thus, the formula is SCl6. Note that this compound does not obey the octet rule.
The prefix tells you how many carbons are in the principal chain of the molecule. the prefixes for 1-10, in order, are:meth, eth, prop, but (pronounced like butte), penta, hexa. hepta, octa, nona, deca.

There is not one particular formula to be given, because there are (already) 4 possibilities for one C atom to bind with chlorine (from mono- to tetra-chloro-methane):CH3ClCH2Cl2CHCl3CCl4With 2 C atoms 10 possibilities (from mono- upto hexa-chloro-ethane)and with more C atoms it becomes (almost) uncountable.
Mono- means 1 Di- means 2 Tri- means 3 Tetra- means 4 Penta- means 5 Hexa- means 6 Hepta- means 7 Octa- means 8 Nona- means 9 Deca- means 10
S2F6 , this is the correct formula for disulfur-hexa-fluoride
yes SF6 gas is used in modern ckt. breaker.
48 6 for sulfur 7 x6=42 for hexafluoride
6 is most likely, hence the name hexafluorine
SF6 is sulphur-hexa-fluorine, it is used in gaseous form as an arc suppressent and also to insulated EHV busducts and switchgear.

Hexa is a prefix derived from the Greek word for 6.
The Greek prefix for 6 is "hexa-".
The prefix for one sixth is "hexa-."
Yes, hexa does mean 6. It is derived from the Greek word "hex" which means six.
Hexa is a prefix meaning six. The most common words beginning with hexa have to do with 6-sided shapes. The polygon is a hexagon, and it can be described as hexagonal.
