Q.

0.1 M solution of KI reacts with excess of H2SO4 and KIO3 solutions. According to equation

5I-+IO3-+6H+3I2+3H2O

Identify the correct statements:

(A) 200 mL of KI solution reacts with 0.004 mol of KIO3
(B) 200 mL of KI solution reacts with 0.006 mol of H2SO4
(C) 0.5 L of KI solution produced 0.005 mol of I2
(D) Equivalent weight of KIO3 is equal to (molecular weight5)

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:                             [2025]

1 (A) and (B) only  
2 (A) and (D) only  
3 (B) and (C) only  
4 (C) and (D) only  

Ans.

(2)

(A) Moles of KI=Molarity×Volume in L=0.1M×0.2L=0.02mol

As per reaction stoichiometry:  

nKIO31=nKI5

nKIO31=0.025

nKIO3=0.004mol

(B) Moles of KI=Molarity×Volume in L

                             =0.1 M×0.2 L=0.02mol

As per reaction stoichiometry:  

nH+6=nKI5

2×nH2SO46=nKI5

2×nH2SO46=0.025

nH2SO4=0.012mol

(C) Moles of KI=Molarity×Volume in L

                            =0.1 M×0.5 L=0.05mol

As per reaction stoichiometry:  

nI23=nKI5

nI23=0.55

nI2=0.50mol

(D) n factor of KIO3=(Change in O.N. of I from KIO3 to I2)×Number of I in KIO3=(5)×1=5


Equivalent weight of KIO3=Molecular weight of KIO3nfactor=Molecular weight of KIO35
