Solution
The correct options are A25 mL of 0.2MFeSO4 to be oxidized to Fe3+ B25 mL of 0.1MSnCl2 to be oxidized to Sn4+ D25 mL of 0.1MH2O2 to be oxidized to H+ and O2 Normality = Molarity x absolute of (total production oxidation state - total reactant oxidation state) Moles used = volume in liters X Normality Moles of KMnO4 = 0.025X0.2=0.005 Option A= 0.025X0.2X|(3−2)|=0.005 Option B= 0.05X0.1X|(5−3)|=0.01 Option C= 0.025X0.1X|(0−2)|=0.005 Option D= 0.025X0.1X|(4−2)|=0.005 Hence Options A,C and D are correct
