For the redox reaction MnO(4)^(ө)+C(2)...

For the redox reaction
`MnO_(4)^(ө)+C_(2)O_(4)^(2-)+H^(o+)rarrMn^(2+)+CO_(2)+H_(2)O`
the correct coefficients of the reactions for the balanced reaction are

A

`{:(MnO_(4)^(-),C_(2)O_(4)^(2-),H^(+),),(2,5,16,):}`

B

`{:(MnO_(4)^(-),C_(2)O_(4)^(2-),H^(+),),(16,5,2,):}`

C

`{:(MnO_(4)^(-),C_(2)O_(4)^(2-),H^(+),),(5,16,2,):}`

D

`{:(MnO_(4)^(-),C_(2)O_(4)^(2-),H^(+),),(2,16,5,):}`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The balanced redox reaction is :
`2MnO_(4)^(-) + 5C_(2)O_(4)^(2-) + 16H^(+) rarr 2Mn^(2+) +10CO_(2) + 16 H_(2)O`
Hence, the coefficients of reactants in balanced reaction are 2,5 and 16 respectively.
