How to Evaluate N Factor?

N Factor evaluator uses N Factor = Molecular Weight/Equivalent Weight to evaluate the N Factor, N Factor is the valency factor or conversion factor. n-fact of substance in redox reaction is equal to number of moles of electron lost or gained per mole. n-fact of substance in non-redox reaction is equal to the product of displaced mole and its charge. N Factor is denoted by nf symbol.
