NEET Chemistry Oxidizing Agents Assertion Reason Question
Given below are two statements. Statement I : Iron(III) catalyst, acidified K₂Cr₂O₇ and neutral KMnO₄ have the ability to oxidise I⁻ to I₂ independently. Statement II : Manganate ion is paramagnetic in nature and involves π-π bonding. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Both statement I and statement II are true
Both statement I and statement II are false
Statement I is true but statement II is false
Statement I is false but statement II is true
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Statement I is true as these reagents can oxidize iodide ions. Statement II is false because manganate ion does not involve π-π bonding.
