In the oxidation of sulphite to sulphate using pennanganate the number of protons consumed by each manganese center is:

A

5

B

2

C

6

D

3

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The redox reaction involved is:
`2MnO_(4)^(-)+5SO_(2)+2H_(2)O to 2Mn^(2+)+5SO_(4)^(2-)+4H^(+)`
Each managese centre consumes two protons.
