Solution
The correct option is C4:5
Solution: (C) 4:5
Case I:
2 mole, equimolar mixture of Na2C2O4 and H2C2O4 required V1L of 0.1MKMnO4 in acidic medium.
As the mixture is equimolar, 1 mole of each, Na2C2O4 and H2C2O4 are present.
∴eq. of Na2C2O4+eq. of H2C2O4=eq. of KMnO4(equivalent=mole×valencefactor}
⇒1×2+1×2=V1×0.1×5{∵ valence factor=Change in oxidation state per molecule}
⇒V1=8L
Case II:
2 mole, equimolar mixture of Na2C2O4 and H2C2O4 required V2L of 0.2MNaOH for neutralization.
