The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the statements is false, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement:** Na2Cr2O7 is used as a primary standard in volumetric analysis. **Analysis:** - Sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air. - Due to its deliquescent nature, it cannot be reliably used as a primary standard because its mass can change with humidity. - Therefore, this statement is **false**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement 2 **Statement:** Potassium permanganate in excess on treatment with concentrated H2SO4 forms manganese heptoxide. **Analysis:** - The reaction of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) with concentrated sulfuric acid (H2SO4) produces manganese heptoxide (Mn2O7). - The balanced reaction is: \[ 2 KMnO4 + 3 H2SO4 \rightarrow Mn2O7 + K2SO4 + 3 H2O \] - This statement is **true**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement 3 **Statement:** Phosphine and astatine precipitate silver from silver nitrate. **Analysis:** - Phosphine (PH3) reacts with silver nitrate (AgNO3) to form a silver phosphide precipitate. - The reaction can be represented as: \[ 3 AgNO3 + PH3 \rightarrow Ag3P + 3 HNO3 \] - Astatine (AsH3) also reacts similarly with silver nitrate. - Therefore, this statement is **true**. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement 4 **Statement:** From the Kip's apparatus, waste ferric sulfate and ferrous sulfate are obtained when air (oxygen) is passed for a longer time. **Analysis:** - In the Kip's apparatus, iron pyrite (FeS2) reacts with oxygen and water to initially form ferrous sulfate (FeSO4). - With prolonged exposure to oxygen, ferrous sulfate can oxidize to form ferric sulfate (Fe2(SO4)3). - The reactions are: \[ 4 FeS2 + 15 O2 + 6 H2O \rightarrow 4 FeSO4 + 4 H2SO4 \] \[ 4 FeSO4 + O2 + 2 H2O \rightarrow 2 Fe2(SO4)3 + 2 H2SO4 \] - Thus, this statement is **true**. ### Conclusion After analyzing all the statements, the only false statement is: **False Statement:** Na2Cr2O7 is used as a primary standard in volumetric analysis. ---

To determine which of the statements is false, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement:** Na2Cr2O7 is used as a primary standard in volumetric analysis. **Analysis:** - Sodium dichromate (Na2Cr2O7) is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air. - Due to its deliquescent nature, it cannot be reliably used as a primary standard because its mass can change with humidity. ...
