HNO3 , NO, N2 , NH4Cl
3. Answer (A)
H2O2 acting as a reducing agent with KIO4 and H2O2 acting as an oxidising agent with NH2OH.
4. Answer (A)
Oxidation state
H3PO4 P=+5
H4P2O6 P=+4
H3PO3 P=+3
H3PO2 P=+1
H3PO4 > H4P2O6 > H3PO3 > H3PO2
5. Answer (A, C, D)

MnO4 
aq
 MnO2
–
acidic
MnO4   Mn2 
Therefore in aqueous and in acidic mediums 3 and 5 electrons will transfer respecitvely.
6. Answer (A, B, D) or (A, D)
Balanced chemical equation is 6I  ClO3  6H2 SO 4 
 Cl  6HSO 4  3I2  3H2 O
Here, H2O is produced and I– is oxidized.
7. Answer (C)
25  N  45  0.25
N  48  0.25

K2Cr2O7 + I– + H+  I2
CuSO4 + I–  I2
H2O2 + I–  I2
Cl2 + I–  I2
O3 + I–  I2

13. Answer (6)

3S2O3– + 8MnO4–  6SO42– + 8MnO2

 8 moles of MnO4– form 6 moles of SO42–

14. Answer (120 – 130)

From POAC,

m moles of MnCl2 = m moles of KMnO4 = x((let)

and, meq of KMnO4 = meq of oxalic acid

 225 
x5   2
 90 
x=1
 m moles of MnCl2 = 1
mg of MnCl2 = (55 + 71) = 126 mg
15. Answer (0.11)
Titration of oxalic acid solution with NaOH solution using phenolphthalein as an indicator.
H2C2O4 + NaOH  Na2C2O4 + H2O
At end point when phenolphthalein shows permanent faint pink colour, solution will have Na2C2O4.
 Equivalent of H2C2O4 reacted = Equivalent of NaOH reacted
