Solution
The correct option is B152 Assume that a mixture of Na2C2O4 and KHC2O4.H2C2O4 required 1 L of 0.2 M KMnO4 and 1 L of 0.2 M NaOH separately for complete titration.
1 L of 0.2 M NaOH corresponds to 1L×0.2mol/L=0.2 moles of NaOH. 1 mole of KHC2O4.H2C2O4 will react with 3 moles of NaOH. So 0.2 moles of NaOH will react with 0.23=0.0667 moles of KHC2O4.H2C2O4. 1 L of 0.2 M KMnO4 corresponds to 1L×0.2mol/L=0.2 moles of KMnO4 5 moles of Na2C2O4 will react with 2 moles of KMnO4. 0.2 moles of KMnO4 will react with 52×0.2=0.5 moles of Na2C2O4 The mole ratio Na2C2O4:KHC2O4˙H2C2O4=0.5:0.0667=152
