which of the following statements is not correct about the reaction given below?
`K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]overset("Oxidation")rarrFe^(3+)+CO_(2)+NO_(3)^(ө)`

A

`Fe` is oxidised from `Fe^(2+)` to `Fe^(3+)`

B

Carbon is oxidised from `C^(2+)` to `C^(4+)`

C

`N` is oxidised from `N^(3-)` to `N^(5+)`

D

carbenes

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

D

In `CN^(ө)`, oxidation of `C` is `+2` , and it changes to `+4` oxidation state in `CO_(2)`. So `C` is also oxidised.
