Redox reactions play a pivotal role in chemistry and biology. The values standard redox potential `(E^(c-))` of two half cell reactions decided which way the reaction is expected to preceed. A simple example is a Daniell cell in which zinc goes into solution and copper sets deposited. Given below are a set of half cell reactions `(` acidic medium `)` along with their `E^(c-)(V` with respect to normal hydrogen electrode `)` values. Using this data, obtain correct explanations for Question.
`I_(2)+2e^(-) rarr 2I^(c-)," "E^(c-)=0.54`
`Cl_(2)+2e^(-) rarr 2Cl^(c-), " "E^(c-)=1.36`
`Mn^(3+)+e^(-) rarr Mn^(2+), " "E^(c-)=1.50`
`Fe^(3+)+e^(-) rarr Fe^(2+)," "E^(c-)=0.77`
`O_(2)+4H^(o+)+4e^(-) rarr 2H_(2)O, " "E^(c-)=1.23`
Sodium fusion extract obtained from aniline on treatment with iron `(II)` sulphate and `H_(2)SO_(4)` in the presence of air gives a Prussion blue precipitate. The blue colour is due to the formation of

`Fe_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]_(3)`

B

`Fe_(3)[Fe(CN)_(6)]_(2)`

C

`Fe_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]_(2)`

D
