Assertion: When

\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{S}

is converted into

\mathrm{Cu}^{+} \,\&\, \mathrm{SO}_2

, then equivalent weight of

\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{S}

will be

\mathrm{M} / 8\,\left(\mathrm{M}=\mathrm{Mol}\right.

. wt. of

\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{S}

)
Reason:

\mathrm{Cu}^+

is converted

\mathrm{Cu}^{++}

, during this one electrons is lost.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion

Option B is correct because the equivalent weight is calculated based on the total change in oxidation state of all copper and sulfur atoms in Cu2S during its conversion to Cu+ and SO2.
