Question

Weight of metal and chlorine in a metal chlonde are in 1 : 5 mass ratio. The equivalent weight of the
metal will be
(1) 14.2
(2) 7.1
(3) 24
(4) 5​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ratio of Mass = 1:5

Mass of Chlorine = 35.5 (if we talk about Cl atom)

Mass of Metal = 35.5/5 = 7.1 (2)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Mass of Chlorine = 71 (if we talk about Cl2 molecule)

Mass of Metal = 71/5 = 14.2 (1)
