x moles of K2Cr​2O7, oxidizes 2 moles of ferrous oxalate in acidic medium, then what is the value of x?
ans. 1

plz explain

Dear student
Please find the solution to the asked query:

K2Cr2O7 +7H2SO4 +2FeC2O4 --> Fe2(SO4)3+ K2SO4+ Cr2(SO4)3 +4CO2+7H2O

In the balanced equation the ratio between moles of ferrous oxalate and potassium dichromate is 2:1.
So when 2 moles of Ferrous oxalate are oxidised, 1 mole of potassium dichromate is used.
So x=1
