Question

equivalent weight of B (OH)3 is​

Answer 1

Answer:

The equivalent weight of B(OH)3 is molecular weight/1.

Explanation:

We know that the Boron is attached to three other hydroxyl group so the

n-factor must be 3. Hence, we know that the formulae of equivalent weight of compound is molecular weight / n-factor hence the equivalent weight must have been molecular weight /3.

Since, the B(OH)3 is a mono-basic acid hence on reacting with water it will release B(OH)4 after reaction. This, concludes that the n-factor of the B(OH)3 is 1. So, the equivalent weight is molecular weight/1. Since the molecular weight of B(OH)3 is 61 g/mol hence the equivalent weight is 61.
