Question: The role of H 3 PO 4 in the estimation of Fe(II) with K 2 Cr 2 O 7 using diphenylamine sulphonate as indicator is to a) Avoid aerial oxidation of Fe(II) b) Reduce the electrode potential of Fe 3+ → Fe 2+ c) Stabilizer the indicator d) Stabilize K 2 Cr 2 O 7 Answer : (b) Reduce the electrode potential of Fe 3+ → Fe 2+ Explanation For the titration of Fe 2+ with K 2 Cr 2 O 7 different indicators like diphenylamine, diphenylbenzidine and diphenylamine sulfonate may be used. All these indicators give green to violet co...
