`H_(2)C_(2)O_(4)` and `NaHC_(2)O_(4)` behave as acids as well as reducing agents. Which of the following are correct statements?A. Equivalents weights of `H_(2)C_(2)O_(4)` and `NaHC_(2)O_(4)` are equal to their molecular weights when acting as reducing agents.B. Equivalents weight of `H_(2)C_(2)O_(4)` and `NaHC_(2)O_(4)` are equal to half their molecular weights when acting as reducing agents.C. 100 " mL of " 1 M solution of each is neutralised by equal volumes of 1 Nca (OH)_(2)`D. 100 " mL of " 1 M solution of each is oxidised by equal volumes of 1 M `KMnO_(4)`. |
Answer» Correct Answer - B::D `H_(2)C_(2)O_(4)`: As acid `n=2` As reducing agent `n=2` `NaHC_(2)O_(4)`: As acid `n=1` As reducing agent, `n=2` `E_(H_(2)CO_(2)O_(4))]_("as reducing agent")=(M)/(2)`: `E_(NaHC_(2)O_(4))]_("as reducing agent")=(M)/(2)` On reaction with `KMnO_(4)` `H_(2)C_(2)O_(4)` and `NaHC_(2)O_(4)`: both are acting as reducing agents with same n factor of 2. `m" Eq of "KMnO_(4)-=m" Eq of "H_(2)C_(2)O_(4)` `m" Eq of "KMnO_(4)-=m" Eq of "NaHC_(2)O_(4)` |
