[Fe(H2O)6]2+  sp3d2  n = 4
x = 32
[Cu(H2O)6]2+  sp3d2  n = 1

Disproportionation
(A)
Answer (9)
Sol. NaNO2 + HCl ⎯⎯→NaCl + HNO2
B and C are MnO−4 and MnO2
Mn in MnO2 has +4 oxidation state hence it has C2H5NH2 + HNO2 ⎯⎯→C2H5OH + N2  + H2O
(n – 1)d3 ns0 electronic configuration 2.24
unpaired e = 3 Mole of N2(g) produced = = 0.1 mol
22.4
Mag. moment : 3.87 B.M. by n (n + 2) So, mole of C2H5NH2 used = 0.1 mol
KMnO4/ MnO−4 is diamagnetic hence magnetic Mass of C2H5NH2 = 45 × 0.1 = 4.5 g
moment = 0 because it has no unpaired electron. So, 2x = 2 × 4.5
Hence, sum of mag. moment = 3.87 B.M. =9
Nearest integer = 4 30.

= 15 + 82 = 97
Q = 2AT – A  QT = 2AT – A = – P
