fe3+ is reduced to fe2+ by using
fe3+ is reduced to fe2+ by using
H2O2 in the presence of NaOH
Na2O2 in water
H2O2 in the presence of H2SO4
Na2O2 in the presence of H2SO4
The Correct Option is C, D
Solution and Explanation
H2O2 in the presence of H2SO4
Na2O2 in the presence of H2SO4
By using H₂O₂ in the presence of NaOH. In this H₂O₂ will act as a reducing agent and OH ion will act as a base. The balanced reaction is as follows:
2 Fe³⁺ + 2 H₂O₂ + 2 OH⁻ → 2 Fe²⁺ + 2H₂O + O₂
Another way is by using, Na₂O₂ in water. In the reaction, sodium peroxide will act as a strong oxidizing agent and therefore donate the oxygen atom. Water will provide the medium. The reaction for the same is as follows:
2Fe³⁺ + Na₂O₂ + 2H₂O → 2 Fe²⁺ + 2NaOH + H₂O₂
