(i)

For any acid it is the number H+ replaced or e-pair gained by its one molecule, i
...
its basicity
...




n-factor for H3BO3 = 1
(ii) For any base, it is the no of OH– lost or H+ gained or electron pair donated by its one molecule, i
...
its acidity
...

Example :
For Al2(SO4)3 n-factor = 6
(iv) For any radical, it is the charge over it

(ii) If from any solution any small amount is taken out, concentration of the small amount remain exactly the
same

Empirical formula :

It represent atoms present in any molecule in the simplest ratio
...
The Law of Conservation of Mass (Lavoiser 1744) : This law states “matter can neither be created nor
destroyed or in a chemical reaction, the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products”

Some Basic Concept of Chemistry

Example :

O2  2CaO

80 g
32 g
112 g
Total mass reactant = Total mass product = 112 g
For a complete irreversible reaction total mass of reactants before reaction in equal to the total mass of Products
after reaction
...
The Law of Constant Composition or Definite Proportion (Proust in 1799) : This law states that “ All
pure sample of the same chemical compound contain the same elements combined in the same proportion by
mass irrespective of the method of preparation”
...

Similarly in water ratio of weight of hydrogen to oxygen is 1 : 8
...
The Law of Multiple Proportion (Dalton)
This law states that :when two elements A and B combine together to from more than one compound, then
several, masses of A which separately combine with a fixed mass of B, are in a simple ratio
...
e
...
The Law of Reciprocal Proportions (Richer in 1792 - 94)
This law states that “when two elements combines separately with third element and form different types of
molecules their combining ratio is directly reciprocated if they combine directly
...
In CO2 12 g of C reacts with 32g of O,
whereas in CH4 12 g of reacts with 4g of H

The same is found to be true in H2O molecules

...
Or in other words volume of
reacting gases and product gases have a simple numerical ratio to one another

The Avogadro Law
This law states that “equal voume of all gaseous under similar conditions of temperature and pressure contain
equal number of molecules”

ratio 2 : 1 : 2
It provides a relationship between vapour density and molecular mass of substances
