1.	0.9367 g of cadmium combine with chlorine to form 1.5276 g of CdCl_2- Find the equivalent mass of cadmium.
Answer» SOLUTION :Mass of cadmium taken = 0.9367 g Mass of `CdCl_2` formed = 1.5276 g Mass of chlorine that combines with 0.9367 g of cadmium = 1.5276 - 0.9367 = 0.5909 g HENCE, The EQUIVALENT weight of cadmium `=("Mass of the metal")/("Mass of chlorine") xx 35.5` `=0.9367/0.5909 xx 35.5 = 56.27`
