Match one mole of each oxidizing agent in Column I with the moles of reducing agent in Column II needed for complete reaction.

Column I

Column II

A) KMnO₄ (H⁺)

P) 3.0 mole of FeSO₄

B) KMnO₄ (OH⁻)

Q) 0.5 mole of I₂ (oxidized to HIO₃)

C) MnO₂ (H⁺)

R) 1.0 mole of K₂C₂O₄

D) K₂CrO₄ (H⁺)

S) 1.5 mole of K₂SO₃

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Electrons supplied per mole of reductant: FeSO₄ (Fe²⁺ Fe³⁺) = 1; I₂ 2HIO₃ = 10; K₂C₂O₄ 2CO₂ = 2; K₂SO₃ K₂SO₄ = 2. (A) Mn(+7) Mn(+2) needs 5 e⁻: 0.5 mol I₂ supplies 5 (Q). (B) In OH⁻, Mn(+7) MnO₂ (+4) needs 3 e⁻: 3.0 mol FeSO₄ (P) or 1.5 mol K₂SO₃ (S) each supply 3. (C) MnO₂ (+4) Mn²⁺ needs 2 e⁻: 1.0 mol K₂C₂O₄ (R). (D) In H⁺, CrO₄²⁻ Cr(+6) Cr³⁺ needs 3 e⁻: 3.0 mol FeSO₄ (P) or 1.5 mol K₂SO₃ (S).
