The average molar mass of chlorine is 35 . 5 g mol - 1 . The ratio of Cl 35 to Cl 37 in naturally occurring chlorine is close to :
Options
- A4   :   1
- B3   :   1
- C2   :   1
- D1   :   1
Correct answer
B. 3   :   1
Step-by-step solution
35 CI 37 CI Molar   ratio x 1 − x M avg . = 35 × x + 37 1 − x = 35 .5 35 x + 37 − 37 x = 35 .5 2 x = 1 .5 x = 3 4 So, ratio of 35 CI : 37 CI = 3 : 1
