0.1 M solution of KI reacts with excess of H2SO4 and KIO3 solutions. According to equation 5I- + IO3- + 6H+ 3I2 + 3H2O Identify the correct statements : Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- (C) and (D) only
- (A) and (B) only
- (B) and (C) only
- (A) and (D) only
Answer
(4) (A) and (D) only
Solution
Ratio I-:IO3-:H+:I2=5:1:6:3; n(I-)=0.1 0.2=0.02 mol.
(A) n(IO3-)=0.02/5=0.004 mol ✓
(B) n(H2SO4)= 65 0.02 12=0.012 mol ✗
(C) n(I2)= 35 0.05=0.03 mol ✗
(D) I(+5) I(0), n-factor 5 ⇒ E=M/5 ✓
Answer: (4)
