    During a redox titration involving a solution containing\[F{{e}^{2+}}\]ions against\[MnO_{4}^{-}\]in the presence of excess of\[{{H}^{+}}\]ions, the number of electrons that gets transferred is

    A)  6                                            

    B)  5

    C)  4                                            

    D)  2

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    \[MnO_{4}^{-}+8{{H}^{+}}+5{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}M{{n}^{2+}}+4{{H}_{2}}O\] \[\begin{align}   & \underline{\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,[F{{e}^{2+}}\xrightarrow{{}}F{{e}^{3+}}+{{e}^{-}}]5\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,} \\  & \underline{MnO_{4}^{-}+8{{H}^{+}}+5F{{e}^{2+}}\to M{{n}^{2+}}+5F{{e}^{3+}}+4{{H}_{2}}O} \\ \end{align}\] \[\therefore \]Five electrons gets transferred.
