the correct coefficients of the reactions for the balanced reaction are

Options

A. `{:(MnO_4^(-),C_2O_4^(2-),H^+),(16,5,2):}`
B. `{:(MnO_4^(-),C_2O_4^(2-),H^+),(2,5,16):}`
C. `{:(MnO_4^(-),C_2O_4^(2-),H^+),(2,16,5):}`
D. `{:(MnO_4^(-),C_2O_4^(2-),H^+),(5,16,2):}`

Answer

B

Explanation

The correct balanced equation is
`2MnO_4^(-)+5C_2O_4^(2-)+16H^(+) rarr 2Mn^(2+)+10CO_2+8H_2O`
