Calculate the euilibrium constant for the reaction, `2Fe^(3+) + 3I^(-) hArr 2Fe^(2+) + I_(3)^(-)`. The standard reduction potential in acidic conditions are `0.77 V ` and `0.54 V` respectivelu for `Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+)` and `I_(3)^(-)//I^(-)` couples.A. `4.25xx10^7`B. `7.05xx10^5`C. `6.25xx10^5`D. `6.25xx10^7` |

Answer» Correct Answer - D `2Fe^(3+) + 3I^(-) hArr 2Fe^(2+) + I_3^(-)` For the above change at equilibrium , E=0 Using the relation, `E=E^@-0.059/2"log"K_c` or `0=E_(Fe^(3+)//Fe^(2+))^@-E_(I_3^- //I^-)^@-0.059/2 "log"K_c` or 0=0.77-0.54-`0.059/2"log"K_c` or 0=0.23-`0.059/2"log"K_c` or `0.059/2"log"K_c=0.23` or log `K_c=(0.23xx2)/0.059` or log `K_c` =7.796 or `K_c=6.25xx10^7` |
