What is the n factor for the following reactions :?
1) 2FeCl3 ---> 2FeCl2 + Cl2
2) 2NaOH + Br2 ---> NaBr + NaOBr + H2O
2) 2NaOH + Br2 ---> NaBr + NaOBr + H2O
n factor = (sum of stoichiometric coefficients of gaseous products) - (sum of stoichiometric coefficients of gaseous reactants)
For the first question the answer will be 1.
For the second question the answer will be according to the state of the components.
