Answer» Correct Answer - A Iodometry involves oxidation of iodide ion (usually KI) by strong oxidising agent in neutral or acidic solution to `I_(2)`. The `I_(2)` evolved is then titrated with standard solution of a reducing agent (generally `Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3)`). In choices (C), and (D), medium is alkaline and in choice (B), `MnO_(4)^(2-)` (mangnate) is not a strong oxidising agent. |
