How many moles of ${\mathrm{K}}_2{\mathrm{Cr}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_7$ are required to oxidise one mole of ${\mathrm{FeSO}}_4$ in acidic medium?

1. 6

2. 1/2

3. $\frac{1}{3}$

4. $\frac{1}{6}$

${\mathrm{KMnO}}_4$ is a strong oxidising agent in acidic medium. To provide acidic medium, ${\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4$ is used instead of HCl. This is because

1. ${\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4$ is stronger acid than HCl
2. HCl is oxidised by ${\mathrm{KMnO}}_4$ to ${\mathrm{Cl}}_2$
3. ${\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4$ is dibasic acid
4. Rate is faster in the presence of ${\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4$

1. 1

2. 2

3. 3

4. 4

Equal volumes of 1M each of KMnO${}_4$ and ${\mathrm{K}}_2{\mathrm{Cr}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_7$ are used to oxidise Fe(II) solution in acidic medium.
The amount of Fe oxidised will be

1. More with KMnO${}_4$

2. More with ${\mathrm{K}}_2{\mathrm{Cr}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_7$

3. Equal with both oxidising agents
