The correct Answer is:
To solve the given assertion-reason question, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion (A) The assertion states that the reaction occurs as follows: \[ \text{MnO}_4^- + \text{S}_2\text{O}_3^{2-} \xrightarrow{\text{pH}=7} \text{MnO}_2 + \text{HSO}_4^- \] ### Step 2: Determine the n-factor for MnO4⁻ 1. Identify the oxidation states: - In MnO4⁻, manganese (Mn) has an oxidation state of +7. - In MnO2, manganese (Mn) has an oxidation state of +4. 2. Calculate the change in oxidation state: - Change = +7 (in MnO4⁻) - +4 (in MnO2) = 3. 3. Thus, the n-factor for MnO4⁻ is 3. ### Step 3: Determine the n-factor for S2O3²⁻ 1. Identify the oxidation states: - In S2O3²⁻, sulfur (S) has an oxidation state of +2. - In HSO4⁻, sulfur (S) has an oxidation state of +6. 2. Calculate the change in oxidation state: - Change = 2 (for 2 sulfur atoms in S2O3²⁻) × +6 (in HSO4⁻) - 2 (for 2 sulfur atoms in S2O3²⁻) × +2 = 12 - 4 = 8. 3. Thus, the n-factor for S2O3²⁻ is 8. ### Step 4: Analyze the Reason (R) The reason states that the n-factors for MnO4⁻ and S2O3²⁻ are 3 and 8, respectively. We have calculated these values and found them to be correct. ### Step 5: Conclusion Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are correct, and the reason (R) correctly explains the assertion (A). ### Final Answer: The correct option is (a): If both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). ---
