\(\mathrm{I}_{2}+\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}+\overline{\mathrm{O}} \mathrm{H} \rightarrow \mathrm{CHI}_{3}+\mathrm{HCOO}^{-}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{I}^{-}\) 
which of the following statements is/are correct?
  1. The coefficients of \(\overline{\mathrm{O}} \mathrm{H}\) and \(\mathrm{I}^{-}\) in the given in balanced equation are, respectively, 6 and 5.
  2. The coefficients of \(\overline{\mathrm{O}} \mathrm{H}\) and \(\mathrm{I}^{-}\) in the given balanced equation are, respectively, 5 and 6.
  3. \(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}\) is oxidised to CHI3 and \(\mathrm{HCOO}^{-}\)
  4. The number of electrons in the conversion of \(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}\) to CHI3 and \(\mathrm{HCOO}^{-}\)is 8 .
