Question

55.) 2.6 gm of metal reacts with 1.6 g
oxygen to form metal oxide. Find
the equivalent mass of metal?
(1) 13 g
(2) 268
(3) 14 g
(4) 4.2 g​

Answer 1

Answer:

it is 4.2 g

Explanation:

we get it by adding the mass of the metal and oxygen

Answer 2

Answer:

The mass of metal oxide is 4g and that of oxygen is 1.6g.  

Hence, the mass of metal=4g−1.6g=2.4g

Now Equivalent mass of oxygen=8g

Now,

Equivalent mass of oxygen

Equivalent mass of metal

​  

=  

mass of oxygen

mass of metal

​  

 

Equivalent mass of metal=  

1.6g

2.4g

​  

×(8g)=12g

Therefore, equivalent mass of metal is 14g
