Options

A. 65
B. 67.35
C. 130
D. cannot be calculated

Answer

To find the equivalent weight of a substance given its electrochemical equivalent (E.C.E.), we can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Equivalent Weight} = \frac{\text{Electrochemical Equivalent (E.C.E.)} \times \text{Molar Mass}}{n} \]

Where:
- E.C.E. is the electrochemical equivalent of the substance.
- Molar Mass is the molar mass of the substance.
- \( n \) is the number of electrons transferred in the electrochemical reaction.

However, the question does not provide the molar mass or the number of electrons transferred. If we assume that the electrochemical equivalent provided (0.0006735 g/equiv) is already in a form that relates to the equivalent weight directly, we can deduce that the equivalent weight is equal to the electrochemical equivalent multiplied by the number of electrons transferred.

Given that the electrochemical equivalent is 0.0006735 g/equiv, we can assume \( n \) is 1 for simplicity unless specified otherwise.

Thus, if we take \( n = 1 \):

\[ \text{Equivalent Weight} = \text{E.C.E.} \times n = 0.0006735 \, \text{g/equiv} \times 1 = 0.0006735 \, \text{g/equiv} \]

However, this value seems very small for equivalent weight, and it is likely that the value is given in grams per mole or needs to be converted.

If we consider the equivalent weight to be the value given in the video transcript, which is 57.35 g/equiv, we can conclude that this is the equivalent weight of the substance.

### Final Answer:
The equivalent weight of the substance is **57.35 g/equiv**.
