What and Which

Hi

Could you please tell me if I understand the difference correctly?

Which (when the choice is there)

Which flavor would you like? (at the ice-cream parlor)

Which pencil do you want? (at the bookstore)

What (when the choice is not there)

Are these sentences natural English?

What city is mentioned in the passage?

What day do you like the most?

What gas is the most lethal?

What month do you like the least?

Thanks,

Tom
