Solution

The correct option is A 0.3
H3PO4dissociates into3H+andPO³4

so,nfactor of H3PO4=3

mass of H3PO4=4.9g/mol

molar mass ofH3PO4=3×1+31+4×16=3+31+64=98g/mol

so, no of moles of H3PO4=4.9/98=0.1/2=0.05mol

now , molarity=no of moles of H3PO4volume of solution in Litre

=0.050.5

=0.1M

weknow,

normality=nfactor×molarity

so,normality=3×0.1=0.3N
