Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The gram equivalent weight of an acid may be calculated by dividing its gram formula weight by the number of hydrogen atoms in its formula, as shown in the following reaction:
The single H+ of hydrochloric acid (HCl) is replaced by Na+. One mole of HCl has 1 mol of re-placeable hydrogen. By definition, the gEq of HCl must be the same as its gram formula weight, or 36.5 g.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Gram equivalent weight values. A gEq of a substance is calculated as its gram atomic (formula) weight divided by its valence. The valence signs (+ or ) are disregarded.
