Solution

The correct option is A 50 %
Ferrous ammonium sulphate FeSO4.(NH4)2SO4.6H2O
Equivalents of FeSO4.(NH4)2SO4.6H2O= Equivalents of KMnO4
N1V1=N2V2
N1×1000=110×50
N1=1200
Equivalent weight of FeSO4.(NH4)2SO4.6H2O=Molecular weight×1=392

Strength of pure salt=392×1200=1.96 g/L
% purity =1.963.92×100=50 %
