To balance the given redox reaction step by step, we will follow the half-reaction method, identifying the oxidation and reduction processes, and then balancing the overall reaction. ### Step 1: Identify the oxidation and reduction half-reactions - **Reduction half-reaction**: \[ \text{MnO}_4^{-} \rightarrow \text{Mn}^{2+} \] In this half-reaction, manganese is reduced from an oxidation state of +7 in MnO4^- to +2 in Mn^2+. ...
