Hydrogen peroxide oxidises Fe(CN)6]4- to [Fe(CN)6]3- in acidic medium but reduces [Fe(CN)6]3- to [Fe(CN)6]4- in alkaline medium. The other products formed are, respectively

  • H2O and (H2O + OH-)

  • (H2O + O2) and H2O

  • (H2O + O2) and (H2O + OH-)

  • H2O and (H2O + O2)

  • H2CrO4, CrO42-


186.

In the reaction,

2FeCl3 + H2S → 2FeCl2 + 2HCl + S

The correct statement is

  • FeCl3 acts as an oxidising agent

  • H2S and FeCl3 both act as an oxidising agent

  • FeCl3 get oxidised while H2S get reduced

  • H2S acts as an oxidising agent

When copper is treated with a certain concentration of nitric acid, nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide are liberated in equal volumes according to the equation,

xCu + yHNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + NO + NO2 + H2O

The coefficients of x and y are respectively

  • 2 and 3

  • 2 and 6

  • 1 and 3

  • 3 and 8


B.

2 and 6

Balanced equation for producing NO and NO2 respectively are

3Cu + 8HNO3 → 3Cu(NO3)2 + 2NO + 4H2O   ...(i)

  Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2NO2 + 2H2O   ...(ii)

Here, NO and NO2 are evolved in equal volumes, therefore adding equations (i) and (ii)

We get,

4Cu + 12HNO3 → 4Cu(NO3)2 + 2NO + 2NO2 + 6H2O

  2Cu + 6HNO3 → 2Cu(NO3)2 + NO + NO2 + 3H2O
