Redox Reactions
Which of the following are primary standard?
Choose the correct statement:
(A) $$\text{In acidic medium, one mole of permanganate ion gains 5 moles of electrons whereas 1 mole of iron (II) ion}$$ $$\text{loses one mole of electrons.}$$ Hence, $$1$$ mole of $$MnO_4$$ ion can oxidize $$5$$ moles of $$Fe^{2^+}$$ ion in acidic medium. $$\text{(B) In acidic medium, 1 mole of dichromate ion gains 6 moles of electrons whereas 1 mole of iron (II) ion loses}$$ $$\text{one mole of electrons.}$$ Hence, $$1$$ mole $$Cr_2O_7^{2-}$$ ion can oxidize $$6$$ moles of $$Fe^{2+}$$ ion in acidic medium. $$\text{(C) In acidic medium, one mole of permanganate ion gains 5 moles of electrons whereas 1 mole of }Cu_2S$$ $$\text{loses two moles of electrons.}$$ Hence, $$1$$ mole of $$MnO_4$$ ion can oxidized $$\dfrac52$$ moles of $$Cu_2S$$ ion in acidic medium. or 1 mole of $$Cu_2S$$ can oxidised by $$0.4$$ moles of $$MnO^−_4$$ ion in acidic medium. $$\text{(D) In acidic medium, 1 mole of dichromate ion gains 6 moles of electrons whereas 1 mole of }Cu_2S$$ $$\text{loses two moles of electrons.}$$ Hence, $$1$$ mole $$Cr_2O_7^{2-}$$ ion can oxidized $$3$$ moles of $$Cu_2S$$ ion in acidic medium. or 1 mole of $$Cu_2S$$ can oxidised by$$0.33$$ moles of $$MnO_4^-$$ ion in acidic medium. Option A,B are correct.
Which of the following are primary standard?
Give reasons: Carbon cannot reduce the oxides of Na or Mg.
KMnO4 acts as an oxidizing agent in acidic medium. The number of moles of KMnO4 that will be needed to react with one mole of sulphide ions in acidic solution is:
