How many equivalents are present in 5.0 g of al3+?

The one definition of an equivalent weight that I know is that it is the amount of electrons which a substance gains or loses per mole.

Al3+ has +3 charge therefore it loses 3 e-, so we can say that there are 3 equivalent weights in 1 mol Al3+. 
1 mol Al3+ = 3 eq. wts. 
1 mol Al x (27 g / 1 mol ) x (1 mol / 3 eq.wts.) = 9.0 g = 1 eq.wt. 

5.0 g Al3+ x (1 eq.wt. / 9.0 g) = 0.56 eq.wts.

The number of equivalents present in 5 g of are 0.56.

Equivalent weight is the number of electrons gained or lost per mole by a material.

As has a +3 charge, it loses 3 electrons, resulting in 3 equivalent weights in 1 mol .

1 mole = 3 equivalent weight

1 mole Al = 27 g

Number of equivalent =

Number of equivalent = 9 in 1 mole.

27 grams = 9 equivalents

5 grams = 0.56 equivalent.

Thus, 5 grams of has been 0.56 equivalent.

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.
