The oxide of an element contains 32.33 percent of the element and the vapour density of its Chloride is 79. Calculate the atomic mass of the element.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Mass of the element `= 32.33` parts , Mass of Oxygen `= (100 – 32.33) = 67.67` parts.
Equivalent mass of the element `=(32.33)/(67.67xx8=3.82`
Valency of the element `=(2V.D.)/(E+35.5)=(2xx79)/(3.82+35.5)=4.`
Hence, the atomic mass of the element `3.82xx4=15.28`
