Question

metal has 32% oxygen. Its equivalet weight

​

Answer 1

Answer:

It's very simple..

. let's suppose total mass of compound(Oxide here) is = X_____

then the mass of oxygen in oxide is = 32 X / 100 .....

.Mass of metal in oxide is = 68 X / 100 .........

Formula to derive Equivalent wt of metal from oxide) Equivalent wt = mass of metal * 8 / mass of oxygen in Oxide

Equivalent mass of metal is

=( 68X / 100) * 8 / (32 X/100)

== > 68* 8/ 32 = 34 * 8 / 16

= 17 *8 / 8 = 17
