Given below are two statements:
Statement I : Iron (III) catalyst, acidified $\mathrm{K}_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7$ and neutral $\mathrm{KMnO}_4$ have the ability to oxidise I to$\mathrm{l}_2$ independently.
Statement II: Manganate ion is paramagnetic in nature and involves $\mathrm{p} \pi-\mathrm{p} \pi$ bonding.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options.
Select the correct option:
A
Both statement I and Statement II are true
B
Both statement I and Statement II are false
C
Statement I is true but Statement II is false
D
Statement I is false but Statement II is true
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
Neutral $\mathrm{KMnO}_4$ oxidises $\mathrm{I}^{-}$to $\mathrm{IO}_3^{-}$
Manganate ion has $\mathrm{d} \pi$ - $\mathrm{p} \pi$ bonding.
