Question

Relationship between molecular weight and equivalent weight?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Molecular weight -

the average mass of a molecule of a compound compared to ¹/₁₂ the mass of carbon 12 and calculated as the sum of the atomic weights of the constituent atoms.

Equivalent weight -

Equivalent weight is the mass of one equivalent, that is the mass of a given substance which will combine with or displace a fixed quantity of another substance.

Answer 2

Answer:

In science, the equivalent weight of a solution is the molecular weight of the solute, or dissolved substance, in grams divided by the valence of the solute. ... The valence refers to how many hydrogen atoms could bond with the compound. It is determined by the relationship between elements in a compound
