Question

If 0.543 gm of zinc having equivalent weight 32.46 precipitates 0.527 gm of copper from the solution of copper sulphate, the equivalent weight of copper is....?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Weight of Cu = 59.852 g

Explanation:

Here is a relation,

Weight of Cu liberated/Weight of Zn reacted = Equivalent weight of Cu/Equivalent weight of Zn

So,

1/0.543 = Equivalent weight of Cu/32.5

⇒ Weight of Cu = 32.5×1/0.543

∴ Weight of Cu = 59.852 g
