Solution
The correct option is D10 When 1 mole of I2 is oxidized by concentrated HNO3 , the balanced chemical reaction is given as:
10HNO3+I2→2HIO3+10NO2+4H2O
So, it is clearly noticed from balanced chemical reaction that 10 moles of NO2 is formed by oxidation of 1 mole I2 by concentrated HNO3. So, answer is D option.
