Answer:
116
Explanation:
The compound formula is MO
means the valency of M is 2 as valency of oxygen is 2
Now,
Equivalent weight = Molecular weight/n factor
In case of elements n factor is their valency which is 2 here
Putting the given values in formula, we get
50 = molecular weight/2
Molecular weight = 50×2
=100
Molecular weight of compound=molecular weight of M+molecular weight of oxygen
Hence,
molecular weight of compound=100+16
=116
