Assertion `(A)`: Pink coloured solution of potassium permanganate turns green on passing `O_3` through it.
Reason `(R)` :`K_2MnO_4` is oxidised by `O_3` to `KMnO_4`.

A

If both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

B

If both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

C

If (A) is correct, but (R) is incorrect.

D

If (A) is incorrect, but (R) is correct.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`KMnO_(4)` is a stronger oxidising agent as compared to `O_(3)` and hence is not oxidised by `O_(3)`.

Write balanced redox reactions for each of the following reactions: (a) Potassium dichromate (K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)) reacts with hydroiodic acid (HI) to produce potassium iodide, chromium (III) iodide, and solid iodine, I_(2)(s) . (b) A purple solution of aqueous potassium permanganate (KMnO_(4)) reacts with aqueous sodium sulphite (Na_(2)SO_(3)) in basic solution to yield the green magnanate ion (MnO_(4)^(2-)) and sulphate ion (SO_(4)^(2-)) . (c ) Sn^(2+) (aq) reduce I_(4)^(Ө)(aq) to I^(Ө)(aq) and is oxidised to Sn^(4+) . (d) H_(2)O_(2)(aq) oxidises Mn^(2+)(aq) to MnO_(2) in basic medium. (e) H_(2)O_(2)(aq) reduces Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-) (aq) to green coloured Cr^(3+)(aq) in acidic medium.

A green coloured solution of a salt changes its colour to light pink on passing ozone through it. Which of the following species represent pink and green colour respectively.

In permanganate titrations, potassium pemanganats is used an an oxidizing agent in acidic medium. The medium is maintained acidic by the use of dilute sulphuric acid. Potassium permanganate acts as self indicator . The potential equation, when potassium permanganate acts as an oxidizing agent is 2KMnO_(4) + 3H_(2)SO_(4) to K_(2)SO_(4) + 2MnSO_(4) + 3H_(2)O + 5[O] or MnO_(4)^(-) + 8H^(+) + 5e^(-) to Mn^(2+) + 4H_(2)O Before the end point, the solution remains colourless but after teh equivalence point only one extra drop of KMnO_(4) solution imparts pink colour , i.e. appearance of pink colour indicates end point. These titrations are used for estimation of ferrous salts, oxalic acid, oxalates, hydrogen peroxide, As_(2)O_(3) etc. In alkaline condition, KMnO_(4) reacts as follows : 2KMnO_(4) + 2KOH to 2K_(2)MnO_(4) + H_(2)O + [O] Therefore , its equivalent mass will be
