One gram of a chloride was found to contain 0.835 g of chlorine. Its vapour density is 85. calculate its molecular formula.

Answer»

Solution :MASS of metal chloride=1g
Mass of chlorine=0.835g
Mass of metal =(1-0.835)=0.165 G
Equivalent mass of metal `=(0.165xx35.5)/(0.835)`
VALENCY of the metal `=(2V.D.)/(E+35.5)`
`=(2xx85)/(7.01+35.5)`
=4
Formula of the chloride `=MCI_(4)` .
