The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each statement regarding the oxidation reactions involving the given ions in acidic medium. Let's evaluate each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first statement **Statement 1**: 1 mole of MnO4- ion can oxidize 5 moles of Fe2+ ion in acidic medium. - **Reaction**: MnO4- + 8H+ + 5Fe2+ → Mn2+ + 4H2O + 5Fe3+ - **Oxidation States**: - Mn changes from +7 in MnO4- to +2 in Mn2+ (a change of 5 electrons). - Fe changes from +2 in Fe2+ to +3 in Fe3+ (a change of 1 electron). Since 1 mole of MnO4- can oxidize 5 moles of Fe2+, this statement is **true**. ### Step 2: Analyze the second statement **Statement 2**: 1 mole of Cr2O7^2- ion can oxidize 6 moles of Fe2+ ion in acidic medium. - **Reaction**: Cr2O7^2- + 14H+ + 6Fe2+ → 2Cr3+ + 7H2O + 6Fe3+ - **Oxidation States**: - Cr changes from +6 in Cr2O7^2- to +3 in Cr3+ (a change of 3 electrons per Cr atom). - For 2 Cr atoms, the total change is 6 electrons. Since 1 mole of Cr2O7^2- can oxidize 6 moles of Fe2+, this statement is **true**. ### Step 3: Analyze the third statement **Statement 3**: 1 mole of Cu2S can oxidize 1.6 moles of MnO4- in acidic medium. - **Reaction**: 5Cu2S + 2MnO4- + 16H+ → 10Cu2+ + 2Mn2+ + 8H2O - **Oxidation States**: - Mn changes from +7 in MnO4- to +2 in Mn2+ (5 electrons). - Cu changes from -2 in Cu2S to +2 in Cu2+ (a change of 2 electrons per Cu atom). The balanced equation shows that 5 moles of Cu2S react with 2 moles of MnO4-. Therefore, 1 mole of Cu2S can oxidize 0.4 moles of MnO4-, not 1.6 moles. Thus, this statement is **false**. ### Step 4: Analyze the fourth statement **Statement 4**: 1 mole of Cu2S can oxidize 1.33 moles of Cr2O7^2- in acidic medium. - **Reaction**: 6Cu2S + 2Cr2O7^2- + 16H+ → 12Cu2+ + 4Cr3+ + 8H2O - **Oxidation States**: - Cr changes from +6 in Cr2O7^2- to +3 in Cr3+ (3 electrons per Cr atom). The balanced equation shows that 6 moles of Cu2S react with 2 moles of Cr2O7^2-. Therefore, 1 mole of Cu2S can oxidize 1/3 moles of Cr2O7^2-, not 1.33 moles. Thus, this statement is **false**. ### Conclusion The correct statements are: - **Statement 1**: True - **Statement 2**: True - **Statement 3**: False - **Statement 4**: False Thus, the correct answer is that **only statements 1 and 2 are true**. ### Summary of Correct Statements - **Correct Statements**: 1 and 2 are correct.

To solve the question, we need to analyze each statement regarding the oxidation reactions involving the given ions in acidic medium.
