Solution

The correct option is B Molecular weight6
The reaction between Na2S2O3 and K2Cr2O7 occurs as follow:
S2O23+Cr2O27SO24+Cr3+
The oxidation state of chromium changes from +6 to +3. The net change in the oxidation number per formula unit is 6 or n-factor is 6.
Equivalent weight=Molecular weight6
