A solution contains Fe^(2+), Fe^(3+) and...

A solution contains `Fe^(2+), Fe^(3+)` and `I^(-)` ions. The solution was treated with iodine at `35^(@)C. E^(@)` for `Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+)` is `+0.77" V "` and `E^(0)` for `I_(2)//2I^(-)` is `+0.536" V"`. The favourable redox reaction is :

A

`I_(2)` will be reduced to `I^(-)`

B

These will be no redox reaction

C

`I_(2)` will be oxidised to `I_(2)`

D

`Fe^(2+)` will be oxidised to `Fe^(3+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
(c ) Since the reduction potential of `Fe^(2+)//Fe^(3+)` is more than that of `l_(2)//l^(-)`, `l^(-)` in the redox reaction. `l^(-)` ions will be oxidised to `l_(2)` at the cost of `Fe^(3+)` ions which will be reduced :
`2Fe^(3+)+2l^(-) to 2Fe^(2+)+l_(2)`
