Hey mate here is your answer...

hey A1 and A2 = Solution

Dear student!

The exact weight could not be calculated as data is not given, however it may be solved as:

Weight of metal = x gm

Weight of oxide = y gm

Oxygen consumed = y-x gm

Since, (y-x) gm of oxygen combines with x gm of metal

So, 1 gm of oxygen will combine with = x/ (y-x) gm of metal

Hence, 8 gm of oxygen will combine with = 8x/ (y-x) gm of metal

This 8x/(x-y) quantity is the equivalent weight of metal.
