Question

Vapour density of a metal chloride is 66. Its oxide contains 53% metal. The atomic weight of the metal is

Answer 1

SOLUTION

Equivalent of metal= Equivalent of chloride

=) 53/n= 47/8

=) E= 9.02

Atomic mass of metal= n× 9.02

Molecular mass of chloride

=)2× 66 =n×9.02 + n×35.5

On solving n= 3

Atomic mass of metal

=) 9.02× 3

=) 27.06

Answer 2

Answer:

27

Explanation:

M=X

CONTAIN WEIGHT = 2X + 16 x 3

= 2X + 48

= 2X x 100

(2X + 48 )

= 53%

X=53 use

X(53)=2(53) +48

= 27.06

= 27
