Detailed Solution

FeCl3 and oxalic acid in an aqueous solution containing KOH completely reacted to produce product A. The product A's secondary valency of Fe is

FeCl3+3H2O+6KOHK3FeC2O43(A)+3KCl+6H2O
secondary valency is the number of ligands attached to metal ion K3FeC2O43  here C.N = 6
Secondary valency is also 6.
Hence, the product A isK3FeC2O43 and its  secondary valency is 6.
