Question

Which of the following is correct formula for calculation of n factor for disproportionation reaction.

• A. $n_f=(n_f{)}_{\text{oxidation}}+(n_f{)}_{\text{reduction}}$
• B. $\frac{1}{n_f}=\frac{1}{(n_f{)}_{\text{oxidation}}}+\frac{1}{(n_f{)}_{\text{reduction}}}$
• C. $n_f=(n_f{)}_{\text{oxidation}}^2+(n_f{)}_{\text{reduction}}^2$
• D. None of these.

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{1}{n_f}=\frac{1}{(n_f{)}_{\text{oxidation}}}+\frac{1}{(n_f{)}_{\text{reduction}}}$

The formula for calculation of n-factor$\left(n_f\right)$ for disproportionation reaction:

$\frac{1}{n_f}=\frac{1}{(n_f{)}_{\text{oxidation}}}+\frac{1}{(n_f{)}_{\text{reduction}}}$
