Given-
Equivalent weight of metal = 36
We know that,
Equivalent weight of chlorine = 35.5
Thus,equivalent weight of metal chloride = 71.5
71.5 gm metal chloride contain 36 gm of metal
Therefore,
9.322 gm of metal chloride will contain = 36/71.5 * 9.322 of metal = 4.6936
So,
4.6936 gm of metal would give 9.322 gm of metal chloride.
