In the redox reaction between $$\mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7^{2-} / \mathrm{H}^{+}$$ and sulphite ion, what is the number of moles of electrons involved in producing 3.0 moles of the oxidised product?
In the reaction,
$$2 \mathrm{~S}_2 \mathrm{O}_3^{2-}+\mathrm{I}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{S}_4 \mathrm{O}_6^{2-}+2 \mathrm{I}^{-}$$
When $$3.92 \mathrm{~g}$$ of Mohr salt is dissolved in $$100 \mathrm{~mL}$$ of water, and titrated against $$\mathrm{KMnO}_4$$ solution, $$20 \mathrm{~mL}$$ of this solution required $$18 \mathrm{~mL}$$ of $$\mathrm{KMnO}_4$$ for complete oxidation. The strength of $$\mathrm{KMnO}_4$$ is: [Molar mass of Mohr salt is $$392 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$$ and $$\mathrm{KMnO}_4$$ is $$158 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$$]
Identify the oxidation reaction in which acidified $$\mathrm{KMnO}_4$$ is required
