Identify all the spectator ions in the following reaction.
2KMnO₄(aq) + 10FeSO₄(aq) + 8H₂SO₄(aq) $\to$ K₂SO₄(aq) + 2MnSO₄(aq) + 5Fe₂(SO₄) ₃(aq) + 8H₂O(l)

Question

Identify all the spectator ions in the following reaction. 2KMnO₄(aq) + 10FeSO₄(aq) + 8H₂SO₄(aq) $\to$K₂SO₄(aq) + 2MnSO₄(aq) + 5Fe₂(SO₄)₃(aq) + 8H₂O(l)

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spectator ions are the ions that do not participate in the chemical reaction and remain in their original ionic state. In the given reaction, the ions KS1U1P1+ and SOS1U1B14S1U1B0S1U1P12-S1S1P0 do not react and remain in their ionic form throughout the reaction. Therefore, they are the spectator ions. Hence, the correct answer is option C, which includes only KS1U1P1+ and SOS1U1B14S1U1B0S1U1P12-S1S1P0 as the spectator ions.
