Question

0.456 gram of a metal gives 0.606 gram of its chloride calculate the equivalent mass of the metal

Answer 1

RAM of chlorine = 35.5
Mass of metal = 0.456
Mass of chlorine in the chloride = 0.606 - 0.456
                                                  = 0.15
Equivalent mass = (Mass of metal x 35.5)/ Mass of chlorine in the chloride

                           = (0.456x35.5)/0.15
                           = 16.188/0.15
                           = 107.92
