The correct answer is: 0.0075


Number of mtextlli equivalents of MnO4-=0.02×3×250=15

Number of mtextlli equivalents of l2=0.1×1×250=25

Thus, here MnO4- is limtextting reagent.

Number of mtextlli equivalents of l2 formed = Number of mtextlli equivalent of MnO4-=15

Or number of equivalent of l2 formed =151000=0.015

Number of moles of l2 formed =0.0152

=0.0075
