Question

Explain in detail

In reaction of K M n O 4 and Mohr's salt, F e S O 4 is oxidised
to
( a )   F e 2 + ( b )   F e 3 +
(c) Fe
(d) All of these

Dear Student,
The
formula of Mohr's salt is FeSO4
(NH4)2SO4
6H2O
with molar mass = 392 gm/mol
on
reaction with 
KMnOâ€‹4
iron oxidises
from +2 to +3
Fe+2
→
Fe+3 +
e- 
overall reaction is given
below-
MnO4–
+
8H+
+
5Fe2+
→
Mn2+
+
5Fe3+
+
4H2O

â€‹Therefore,option
B is correct

Regards
