Solution
The correct option is C5.5:1 Let (A) Na2C2O4 = x mol = x mol C2O42− (B) KHC2O4.H2C2O4 = y mol = 3y mol H+ and 2y mol C2O42− Total oxalate =(x+2y) Let volume of KMnO4 or NaOH = V mL H++OH−→H2O 5C2O42−+2MnO42→2Mn2++10CO2 1H+=1OH− 3y mol H+ = 3y mol OH− 3y = V×0.11000 mol NaOH y = V30000 5C2O42−=2MnO4− ∴ (x+2y) mol 5C2O42− = 2(x+2y)5 mol MnO4− 2(x+2y)5 = V×0.11000 mol KMnO4 xy=5.5:1
