A nucleophile is a species that donates an electron pair to form a chemical bond in a reaction. The given species that can act as nucleophiles are: 1. NH3 (Ammonia)
2. PhSH (Phenyl thiol)
3. \({(H}_3{C}_2{S})_2\) (Dimethyl disulfide)
4. \({OH}^-\) (Hydroxide ion)
5. \({H}_3{O}^+\) (Hydronium ion)
6. \({NCH}_3\) (Methylamine) Thus, there are 6 nucleophiles in total.
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: In the oxalic acid vs KMnO$_4$ (in the presence of dil H$_2$SO$_4$) titration the solution needs to be heated initially to 60°C, but no heating is required in Ferrous ammonium sulphate (FAS) vs KMnO$_4$ titration (in the presence of dil H$_2$SO$_4$).
Statement II: In oxalic acid vs KMnO$_4$ titration, the initial formation of MnSO$_4$ takes place at high temperature, which then acts as catalyst for further reaction. In the case of FAS vs KMnO$_4$, heating oxidizes Fe$^{2+}$ into Fe$^{3+}$ by oxygen of air and error may be introduced in the experiment.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
