Weight of metallic oxide = 0.199 g

Now, as 16g of oxygen is present in 18 g of H2O

Thus, O2 present in 0.045 g of H2O = (16 X 0.045) / 18

                                                   = 0.04 g

Weight of metal = 0.199 - 0.04

                        = 0.159

Thus, the equivalent weight of metal = (0.159 X 8) / 0.04

                                                     = 31.8
