  • question_answer
    Number of moles of \[MnO_{4}^{-}\] required to oxidize one mole of ferrous oxalate completely in acidic medium will be

    A) 0. 6 mole      

    B)        0.4 mole                              

    C) 7.5 moles            

    D) 0.2 mole

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea:\[3MnO_{4}^{-}+5{{C}_{2}}O_{4}^{2-}+24{{H}^{+}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\] \[3M{{n}^{2+}}+10C{{O}_{2}}+12{{H}_{2}}O\] \[\therefore \]Number of moles of \[MnO_{4}^{-}\]required to oxidise 5 moles of\[{{C}_{2}}O_{4}^{2-}=3\] \[\therefore \]Number of moles of \[MnO_{4}^{-}\]required- to oxidise 1 mole of \[{{C}_{2}}O_{4}^{2-}=\frac{3}{5}\]\[=0.6mol\]
