In a reaction the ferrous (Fe^(++)) ion ...

In a reaction the ferrous `(Fe^(++))` ion is oxidized to ferric `(Fe^(+++))` ion. The equivalent weight of the ion in the above reaction is equal to

A

Half of the atomic weigh

B

1/5 of the atomic weight

C

The atomic weight

D

Twice the atomic weight

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The atomic weight,
`"Equivalent weight"=("Atomic weight")/("No. of e"^(-)" lost or gained")`
`Fe^(2+)rarrFe^(3+)+e^(-)`
`therefore" Equivalent weight = Atomic weight."`
