MCQ
$74.5 \,g$ of a metallic chloride contain $35.5\, g$ of chlorine. The equivalent weight of the metal is
  • A
    $19.5$
  • B
    $35.5$
  • $39$
  • D
    $78$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$39$
c
(c) wt. of metallic chloride$ = 74.5$

wt. of chlorine = $35.5 $

$\therefore $ wt. of metal $ = 74.5 - 35.5 = 39$

Equivalent weight of metal $ = \frac{{{\rm{weight of metal}}}}{{{\rm{weight of chlorine}}}} \times 35.5$

$ = \frac{{39}}{{35.5}} \times 35.5 = 39$
