Equivalent weight for base Formula Elements

Variables
Equivalent Weight
Equivalent Weight (also known as gram equivalent) is the mass of one equivalent, that is the mass of a given substance.
Symbol: W eq
Measurement: WeightUnit: g
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Molar Mass of Base
The Molar Mass of Base is the mass of the base divided by the amount of base present.
Symbol: Mbase
Measurement: WeightUnit: g
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Basicity
Basicity is the quality of being a base (not an acid). A base is a substance that can accept hydrogen ions in water and can neutralize an acid.
Symbol: Basicity
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
