Detailed Solution
(i) Wt. of metal =0.141g. According to gas equation :P1V1T1=P2V2T2 or V2=P1V1T2T1P2Where at NTP, T2=273K, P2=760mm,V2=?P1=739.2−11.2=728mm,V1=31.1mL,T1=13+273=286K.∴ V2=728mm×31.1mL×273K286K×760mm=28.4mL.We know, wt. of metal wt. of H2 at NTP= Eq.wt. of metal Eq. wt. of hydrogen (=1.008)=V2×0.00009∴ Eq. wt. of metal = wt. of metal ×1.00828.4×0.00009g=0.141g×1.00828.4×0.00009g=55.6(ii) Let wt. of metal = x g; wt. of oxygen =(102−x)g Eq. wt. of metal = wt. of metal ×8 wt. of O2;55.6=8x102−x∴(55.6×102)−55.6x=8x;63.6x=5671.2∴ x=5671.2/63.6=89.17∴ wt. of O2=102−89.17=12.83g Ans.
