Question

Normality is defined as:
  1. A
    moles of solute per litre
  2. B
    equivalents of solute per litre of solution
    Correct
  3. C
    moles of solute per kg of solvent
  4. D
    milliequivalents per mL

Correct answer

equivalents of solute per litre of solution

Explanation

Normality N = equivalents / V(L) = Molarity × n-factor. For HCl (n-factor 1), 1M = 1N. For H₂SO₄ (n-factor 2), 1M = 2N.
