Question

The oxide of an element contains 67.67%of oxygen and the vapour Density of its volatile chloride is79 calculate atomic weight of the element

Answer 1

Answer:

67.67 g of oxygen combines with 32.33 g of element to form oxide. 1 g of oxygen will combine with 32.3367.67 g of element to form oxide. 8 g of oxygen will combine with 8×32.3367.67=3.82 g of element to form oxide. Hence, the equivalent weight of element is 3.82.
