One mole of fluorine is reacted with two moles of hot concentrated $\mathrm{KOH}$. The products formed are $\mathrm{KF}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ and $\mathrm{O}_2$. The molar ratio of $\mathrm{KF}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ and $\mathrm{O}_2$, respectively is
  1. $1: 1: 2$
  2. $2: 1: 0.5$
  3. $1: 2: 1$
  4. $2: 1: 2$

Solution

Stoichiometric equation for the reaction is $ \mathrm{F}_2+2 \mathrm{KOH} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{KF}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{O}_2 $
