1. ClO-
2. Cl2
3. Cl-
4. Both ClO- and Cl-
1. | Due to manganese being in its highest oxidation state in MnO₄²⁻. |
2. | Due to manganese being in its highest oxidation state in MnO₄⁻ |
3. | Because the disproportionation reaction of MnO₄²⁻ is endothermic. |
4. | Because the disproportionation reaction of MnO₄²⁻ is exothermic. |
Nitric acid reacts with PbO but does not react with PbO2 , because -
1. PbO is a base while PbO2 is a strong oxidizing reagent
2. PbO is a base while PbO2 is a weak oxidizing reagent
3. PbO is neutral while PbO2 is a strong oxidizing reagent
4. PbO is acid while PbO2 is a strong oxidizing reagent
The oxidation state of P in is-
1. | +3 | 2. | +4 |
3. | +2 | 4. | +5 |
The oxidation state of two S-atoms in is:
1. +2 and +4
2. +3 and -2
3. +4 and -2
4. +6 and -2
(a) | \(E_{k^+/K}^o = - 2.93\ V\); \(E_{Ag^+/Ag}^o = 0.80\ V\) |
(b) | \(E_{Hg^{2+}/Hg}^o = 0.79\ V\); \(E_{Mg^{2+}/Mg}^o = - 2.37\ V\) |
(c) | \(E_{Cr^{3+}/Cr}^o = -0.74\ V\) |
Based on standard electrode potentials given above, the correct arrangement for increasing order of reducing power of
elements is:
1. | \(\mathrm{Ag}<\mathrm{Hg}<\mathrm{Cr}<\mathrm{Mg}<\mathrm{K} \) |
2. | \(\mathrm{Ag}>\mathrm{Cr}>\mathrm{Mg}>\mathrm{Hg}>\mathrm{K}\) |
3. | \(\mathrm{K}>\mathrm{Mg}<\mathrm{Cr}<\mathrm{Hg}>\mathrm{Ag} \) |
4. | \(\mathrm{K}<\mathrm{Mg}<\mathrm{Cr}<\mathrm{Hg}<\mathrm{Ag}\) |
