(20  mL\mathrm{~mL}) of \(Fe2+(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}) solution of certain concentration has completely reacted with (20  mL\mathrm{~mL}) of (0.01 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{K}}_{2}\mathrm{Cr}}_{2} \mathrm{O}}_{7}) in acidic medium. If (20\mathrm{~mL})ofsame$(Fe2+) of same \$(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}) solution has reacted completely with (20  mL\mathrm{~mL}) of \(\mathrm{KMnO}}_{4}) solution in acid medium, the molarity of \$(\mathrm{KMnO}}_{4}) solution is

Options

  1. A(0.01 M\mathrm{M})
  2. B(0.12 M\mathrm{M})
  3. C(0.10 M\mathrm{M})
  4. D(0.012 M\mathrm{M})

Correct answer

D. (0.012 M\mathrm{M})

Step-by-step solution

The reaction between \(Fe2+(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}) and \(\mathrm{Cr}}_{2}\mathrm{O}}_{7}^{2-}) (i.e. \(\mathrm{K}}_{2}\mathrm{Cr}}_{2} \mathrm{O}}_{7})) in acidic medium occurs as follows : \$(\mathrm{Cr}}_{2}\mathrm{O}}_{7}^{2-}+14 \mathrm{H}^{+}+6 Fe2+⟶\mathrm{Fe}^{2+} \longrightarrow2 Cr3++\mathrm{Cr}^{3+}+7 \mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{O}+66\mathrm{Fe}^{3+})Thereactionbetween$(Fe2+) The reaction between \$(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}) and \(\mathrm{MnO}}_{4}^{-}) (i.e. \$(\mathrm{KMnO}}_{4})) in acidic medium occurs as follows : \$(\mathrm{MnO}}_{4}^{-}+8 \mathrm{H}^{+}+5\mathrm{Fe}^{2+} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Mn}^{2+}+44\mathrm{H}}_{2} O+\mathrm{O}+5 Fe3+\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}) (\therefore \mathrm{Cr}}_{2}\mathrm{O}}_{7}^{2-}) react with (6 Fe2+\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}n_1) and \(\mathrm{MnO}}_{4}^{-})react with (5\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}\left(n_2\right)) in a balanced equation. Gram equivalent of \$(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}) == gram equivalent of \(\mathrm{K}}_{2}\mathrm{Cr}}_{2} \mathrm{O}}_{7})=gram equivalent of \$(\mathrm{KMnO}}_{4}) Therefore, on comparing gram equivalent of \$(\mathrm{K}}_{2}\mathrm{Cr}}_{2} \mathrm{O}}_{7}) and \$(\mathrm{KMnO}}_{4}), we haven_1=6, n_2=5Conc. of \$(\mathrm{K}}_{2}\mathrm{Cr}}_{2} \mathrm{O}}_{7}=0.01\mathrm{M}\left(M_1\right)) Volume of \$(\mathrm{K}}_{2}\mathrm{Cr}}_{2} \mathrm{O}}_{7}=20\mathrm{~mL}\left(V_1\right)) react with \$(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}) ions (=6 \mathrm{~mol}\left(n_1\right)) Conc. of \(\mathrm{KMnO}}_{4}=) to find (sayM_2) Volume of \$(\mathrm{KMnO}}_{4}=20\mathrm{~mL}\left(V_2\right)) react with \$(\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}) ions (=5 \mathrm{~mol}\left(n_2\right)) Thus, (\quad M_1 \times V_1 \times n_1=M_2 \times V_2 \times n_2) or, (0.01 \times 20 \times 6=M_2 \times 20 \times 5) or \(M2=0.01×65=(M_2=\frac{0.01 \times 6}{5}=0.012 M\mathrm{M}) Hence, option (d) is the correct answer.
