if 1 equivalent = 10000 milliequivalent (abbr : meq). If 53g Na2CO3 put into a volumetric flask of 250ml, dissolved by adding water until the linemark. the normality of this solution is?

okay lets first calculate equivalent mass of Na2CO3
OpenStudy (abhisar):
I think u knw that Na2CO3 is a salt ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yaa i know
OpenStudy (abhisar):
okay that's great !
Now equivalent weighgt for salt = Molecular weight/Total charge on cation/anion
OpenStudy (abhisar):
Here total charge on cation or anion is 2

and we just calculated the molecular weight i.e 106
OpenStudy (abhisar):
so eq wt = 53
OpenStudy (abhisar):
got it ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ya i understand!!
OpenStudy (abhisar):
now the next step is to calculate the equivalents of Na2CO3 in 53g Na2CO3

It will be mass of solute/ equivalent mass=53/53=1
OpenStudy (abhisar):
Final step will be Normality = equivalents/volume(L)= (1X1000)/250 = 4

perfect thank u soo much!! i really understand to the bit :)
