Question

In order to oxidise a mixture of 1 mole each of ${FeC}_{2}O_{4},{Fe}_{2}\left( C_{2}O_{4} \right)_{3},{FeSO}_{4}$ and ${Fe}_{2}\left( {SO}_{4} \right)_{3}$ in acidic medium, the number of moles of ${KMnO}_{4}$ required is :

Options

A.3
B.2
C.5
D.7

Solution

Sol. [Key Concept: Equivalents of ${KMnO}_{4} = \sum$ equivalents of the reductants; moles $\times 5 =$ total milli-equivalents.]

Meq of ${KM}_{n}O_{4} = meq$ of ${FeC}_{2}O_{4} + meq$ of ${Fe}_{2}\left( C_{2}O_{4} \right) +$ meq of ${FeSO}_{4}$

moles $\times 5 = 1 \times 3 + 1 \times 6 + 1 \times 1$

moles $= \frac{10}{5} = 2$
