For the formation of Cr2O3 and Al2O3, values of are 540 kJ mol-1 and -827 kJ mol-1 respectively. What will be the possibility for reaction of Cr2O3 by Al?
Reduction of Cr2O3 by Al will take place
Oxidation of Cr2O3 by Al will take place
Neither oxidation nor reduction will take place
Reaction is not feasible
Which of the following statements is incorrect regarding the reaction?
CH3CHO + [Ag(NH3)2] + OH- CH3COO- + Ag
The equivalent weight of CH3CHO is 22
Three moles of OH- are required in the above D reaction
CH3CHO is an oxidising agent
Reduction of [Ag(NH3)2] occurs
C.
CH3CHO is an oxidising agent
Oxidation:
CH3CHO + 3OH- CH3COO- + 2e- + 2H2O ..... (i)
Reduction:
{ [Ag(NH3)2]+ + e- Ag + 2NH3 } x 2 .......... (ii)
CH3CHO + [Ag(NH3)2] + 3OH- CH3COO- + 2H2O + 2Ag + 4NH3
Molecular mass of CH3CHO = 44
Equivalent weight = = = 22
Therefore, acetaldehyde is not an oxidising agent.
When KMnO4 acts as an oxidising agent and ultimately forms Mn MnO2, Mn2O3 and Mn2+ then the number of electrons, transferred in each case respectively are
1, 3, 4, 5
3, 2, 1, 4
1, 5, 3, 7
4, 3, 2, 1
