In the reaction: Cl₂ + NaOH NaCl + NaClO₃ + H₂O, the equivalent weight of H₂O is

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Balanced: 3Cl₂ + 6NaOH 5NaCl + NaClO₃ + 3H₂O. 5 mol Cl gain 1 e⁻ each and 1 mol Cl loses 5 e⁻, so 5 e⁻ transferred per 3 mol H₂O formed. n-factor of H₂O = 5/3, Eq wt = M/(5/3) = 3M/5. Hence (b).
