Number of moles of MnO required to oxidize one mole of ferrous oxalate completely in acidic medium will be
- A7.5 moles
- B0.2 moles
- C0.6 moles
- D0.4 moles
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
The balanced ionic equation for oxidation of
ferrous oxalate by MnO4–
in acidic medium is as
follows :
3MnO4- + 5FeC2O4 + 24H+
3Mn2+ + 10CO2
- 12H2O + 5Fe3+
Thus, 5 moles of FeC2O4 require 3 moles of MnO4-.
So, 1 mole of FeC2O4 requires
= = 0.6 moles of MnO4-
