Dear, it is incomplete reaction.
Please check it and upload it again.

For n-factor :

For Acids :
Acids are the species which furnish H+ ions when dissolved in a solvent. For acids, n-factor is defined as the number of H+ ions replaced by 1 mole of acid in a reaction. Note that the n-factor for acid is not equal to its basicity; i.e. the number of moles of replaceable H+ atoms present in one mole of acid.

For Bases :
Bases are the species, which furnish OH– ions when dissolved in a solvent. For bases, n-factor is defined as the number of OH– ions replaced by 1 mole of base in a reaction. Note that n-factor is not equal to its acidity i.e. the number of moles of replaceable OH– ions present in 1 mole of base.

For Salts :
Salts which react such that no atom undergoes change in oxidation state. The n-factor for such salts is defined as the total moles of cationic/anionic charge replaced in 1 mole of the salt.

Thanks
