Detailed Solution

The oxidation state of S  in Na2 S2O3 is +2

The oxidation state of S  in Na2 S4O6 is +2.5

The reaction is an oxidation reaction, there is a loss of 0.5 electrons form reactant to product

There are 2 moles of reactant and hence 2×0.5=1 is the no. of electrons participate in reaction

Equivalent weight =Mass/no. of electrons participate in reaction

Therefore, equivalent weight of Hypo=M/1
