The equivalent weight of a metal is double than that of oxygen. How many times is the weight of its oxide greater than the weight of metal?

A

4

B

2

C

3

D

1.5

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Equivalent mass of metal`=16=(x)/(n)`
Where x=atomic mass of metal
n=valency of metal
Molecular formula of metal oxide`=M_(2)O_(n)`
`("Mass of metal oxide")/("Mass of metal")=(2(16n)+16(n))/(2(16n))=1.5`
