Chemistry Question on States of matter

A metal chloride contains 55% by mass of chlorine. 100 mL of vapours gives 0.57 gm of chlorine at STP. Calculate the molecular mass of metal chloride. (Nearest integer)

Answer

(1)×MW(R)×(273)\frac{(1)\times MW}{(R)\times(273)}

=0.570.1×10055=\frac{0.57}{0.1}\times\frac{100}{55}

MW=232.28(232)MW=232.28(\approx 232)

The correct answer is : 232\text{The correct answer is : 232}
