Question

Equivalent wt of MgCl2

Answer 1

Mg = 24
Cl2 = 35.5
MgCl2 = 24X1 + 35.5X2
= 24+71
= 95u (unified mass)

Answer 2

Answer:

The Magnesium chloride’s$\left(\mathrm{MgCl}_{2}\right)$ equivalent weight is 47.6 gram.

Explanation:

• Equivalent weight of a solution is the molecular weight of the dissolved substance (solute) in grams divided by the valence of the solute.
• It is the mass of the substance (g) that combines with 8 g of oxygen or 1 g of hydrogen.  

Molecular weight of  $\mathrm{MgCl}_{2}$ = 95.211g/mol

Equivalent weight of  $\mathrm{MgCl}_{2}$ = Molecular weight of $\mathrm{MgCl}_{2}$ / Valence of  $\mathrm{MgCl}_{2}$

Equivalent weight of  $\mathrm{MgCl}_{2}$  $=\frac{95.2}{2}$ = 47.6 g.
