Question

if the weight of metal chloride is x gram containing y gram of metal , the equivalent weight of metal will be???

Answer 1

Answer:

35.5⋅yx−y g

Explanation:

For this compound, the equivalent mass of the metal represents the mass of metal that combines with exactly 35.5 g of chlorine.

You know that the total mass of the oxide is equal to x gand that this sample contains y g of metal, so you can say that the mass of chlorine present in the sample is equal to



So, you know that y g of metal combine with (x−y) g of chlorine, so you can say that 35.5 g of chlorine will combine with

35.5g Cl⋅y.g metal(x−y)g Cl=(35.5⋅yx−y).g metal

Therefore, the equivalent mass of the metal in this compound is equal to
