n factor
n-factor is very important in redox as well as non-redox reactions. With the help of n-factor we can predicts
the molar ratio of the reactant species taking part in reactions. The reaciprocal of n-factor's ratio of the
reactants is the molar ratio of the reactants.
In general n-factor of acid/base is number of moles of H + /OH – furnished per mole of acid/base.
n-factor of a reactant is no. of moles of electrons lost or gained per mole of reactant.
