Solution

The correct option is A $+ 3$
$5 {F e}^{2} + M n O_{4}^{-} p i n k i s h v i o l e t + 8 H^{+} ⟶ {M n}^{2 +} c o l o u r l e s s + 5 {F e}^{3 +} + 4 H_{2} O$ ; $6 {F e}^{2 +} + {C r}_{2} O_{7}^{2 -} o r a n g e + 14 H^{+} ⟶ 6 {F e}^{3 +} + 2 {C r}^{3 +} + 7 H_{2} O$
New oxidation state of iron is $+ 3$ .
