Hello @ss!

Choose the subject for the respective doubt :)
Equivalent weight= Molecular weight/n-factor
find n factor for H2SO4
but umm, in h2so4 n factor isnt changing
and umm like mn going +7 to +2 i dont see any trend in any atoms in h2so4
i think ur not clear with the methods of finding n-factor
u need to check the number of electrons exchanged per mole of h2so4
Which is 10/3 10 electrons are exchanged from KMno4 (+7 to +2) and there are 3 moles of h2so4
ohhh
Or u can do the charge balance thing agar if
Rxn is more complex
but why did we check kmno4 change in reduction
Here it is a simple rxn so u can directly check
Because it is going under Redox na
H2So4 itself is not going under redox
But it does participate in the rxn
ohh
Should be 3M/10 then
like if they asked equivalent weight of kmno4, then what will be the answer?
2M/10?
M/5
yeah
so whats a behaviour or role of h2so4 here? like its not helping in finding n- factor and the question itself asked its equivalent weight
Providing the sulphate ions
ohkk got it 👍
thanks
