20 mL of K4Fe(CN)6 solution is divided into 2 equal parts. One part is completely reacted with 10 mL of FeCl3 solution to form KFe[Fe(CN)6] & KCl. Another part of K4Fe(CN)6 solution is completely reacted with 20 mL of 0.5 M FeCl2 solution to produce K2Fe[Fe(CN)6] & KCl. Molarity of FeCl3 solution is

Solution

K4Fe(CN)6 + FeCl3 → KFe [Fe(CN)6] + 3KCl
  n = 3         n = 3
K4Fe(CN)6 + FeCl2 → K2Fe[Fe(CN)6] + 2KCl
  n = 2        n = 2

(MV)K4Fe(CN)6=(MV)FeCl3
  10 × M1    =      M2 × 10

(MV)K4Fe(CN)6=(MV)FeCl2
 10 × M1    = 0.5 × 20
 MFeCl3 = 1 M
