Question

74.5g of metal chloride contains 35.5g of chloride the equivalent weight of metal is

Answer 1

Explanation:

Mass of metal = 74.5-35.5 = 39 g

Valency of metal = 1

Eq.wt=Molecular mass/n-factor

as there is only one Cl atom in the molecule

Atomic mass of metal = 39g

Equivalent weight = 39g /1 = 39

Answer 2

Equivalent mass of metal is 74.5-35.5 which gives 39 g
