1.40 g of a metal when heated in a current of oxygen gave 1.93 g of the metal oxide. Calculate the equivalent weight of the metal.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Mass of the metal oxide = 1.08 g
Mass of the metal obtained = 1 g
Mass of oxygen that combines with 1 g of the metal = 1.08- 1 = 0.08 g
Hence, Equivalent weight of the metal
`("Mass of the metal")/("Mass of oxygen") xx 8 = 1/0.08 xx 8 = 100.0`
