Solution:

Equivalent weight
If valency factor is , then equivalent weight will be equal to its molecular weight.
In the oxidation state of is
In the oxidation state of is
In the oxidation state of is
In the oxidation state of is
In ; the oxidation state of is
Thus, when is converted into then the valency factor is , and the equivalent weight of will be half of its molecular weight.
