Explanation

Question 8 of 10

1

Which one is the correct ionic half equation for the oxidation of Fe^2+ ions.

Select one of the following:

  • Fe^2+ (aq) = Fe^3+ (aq) + e^-

  • Fe^2+ = Fe^2+ + 2e^-

Explanation

Question 9 of 10

1

In the presence of dilute sulfuric acid, potassium manganate (VII) solution is a strong oxidising agent. The Manganese is reduced to MnO4^- ion is reduced to Mn^2+.
Which is the correct half-equation?

Select one of the following:

  • MnO4^- = Mn^2+ +3e^-

  • MnO4^-(aq) + 8H^+ (aq) = Mn^2+(aq) + 4H2O (l)

  • MnO4^- (aq) + 8H^+ (aq) + 5^e- = Mn^2+ (aq) + 4H20 (l)

Explanation

Question 10 of 10

1

In acid solution, ferrate (VI) ions, FeO4^2- can be reduced to Fe^2+ ions.
Which of the following equations shows this?

Select one of the following:

  • FeO4^2- (aq) + 8H+ (aq) + 4e^- = Fe^2+ (aq) + 4H20 (l)

  • FeO4^2- (aq) + 4e^- = Fe^2+ (aq) + 4H20 (l) + 4e^-
