Equivalent based questions (Valency Factors)
« on: September 13, 2021, 11:11:00 AM »
Answers to d : 5 moles of Ferrous Oxalate (FeC2O4) are required to reduce 2 moles of Potassium Permanganate in acidic medium

Answer to e: Redox equation is [tex]K_2Cr_2O_7 + 3 Cu_2S + 14 H^+ \rightarrow 6 Cu^{2+} +3 S + 7 H_2O + 2K^+ + 2 Cr[/tex]

From the aforesaid equation, we can say that [itex]\frac56[/itex] moles of  K2Cr2O7 is required to react completely with 2.5 moles of  Cu2S in acidic medium.

When using dichromate for oxidation Cr is not reduced to solid metal.

My answer to a) is wrong. I have two probable  answers 1)75 ml of K2Cr2O7.

It is computed as under:
0.3 M = 300 mmol  :rarrow:50 ml of 300mmol = 15mmol
 So  volume of Potassium Dichromate × 0.2 M = 15mmol :rarrow: volume of K2Cr2O7= 75 ml

2) Using this formula v.f.1 × M1 × volume1= v.f.2× M2 × volume2
Plugging in the values available with us into this formula, we have 6×0.2M× V1=2×0.3M × 50 ml

= 25 ml of Potassium Dichromate

Which of the above answer is correct?
