The equivalent mass of chlorine is 35.5,...

The equivalent mass of chlorine is 35.5, and the molar mass of copper is 63.5. The equivalent mass of copper chloride is 99.0. Hence, formula of copper chloride is

A

`CuCl`

B

`Cu_(2)Cl`

C

`CuCl_(2)`

D

`Cu_(2)Cl_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Equivalent mass lof `Cl = 35.5` g
Equivalent mass of copper chloride ` = 99.0 ` g
Equivalent of copper combined `=99. 0 - 35. 5 = 63. 5`
Molar mass of copper `=63.5`
Since, equivalent mass = molar mass
Hence, the formula of compound `= CuCl`
