1.

which of the following statements is not correct about the reaction given below? `K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]overset("Oxidation")rarrFe^(3+)+CO_(2)+NO_(3)^(ө)`A. Fe is oxidised from `Fe^(2+)` to `Fe^(3+)`.B. Carbon is oxidised from `C^(2+)` to `C^(4+)`.C. N is oxidised from `N^(3-)` to `N^(5+)`.D. Carbon is not oxidised.

Answer» Correct Answer - D
In `CN^(-)` , oxidation of C is +2, and it changes to +4 oxidation state in `CO_(2)`. So C is also oxidised.
