0.0100 mol of FeCX2OX4 is dissolved in dilute HX2SOX4. Consider titration with 0.0200MKMnOX4 (oxidises both FeX2+ and oxalate completely) and with 0.0200MKX2CrX2OX7 (assume it oxidises only FeX2+). Which statements are correct?
AThe oxalate part consumes two-thirds of the total KMnOX4 volume.
BThe KX2CrX2OX7 solution needed for the FeX2+ present is 83.3mL.
CComplete oxidation requires 300mL of the KMnOX4 solution.
DThe FeX2+ part alone consumes 200mL of the KMnOX4 solution.
Answer: A, B, C
Total meq =0.0100×3×1000=30.0; KMnOX4 is 0.100N, so 300mL. Fe alone is 10.0 meq: 100mL of KMnOX4 (not 200) or 10.0/0.120=83.3mL of dichromate. Oxalate is 20.0 of 30.0 meq, i.e. two-thirds.
