The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of the disproportionation of \( \text{MnO}_4^{2-} \) in acidic solution, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Disproportionation Disproportionation is a reaction where a single substance is both oxidized and reduced, resulting in two different products. In this case, \( \text{MnO}_4^{2-} \) will undergo disproportionation. ### Step 2: Identify the Oxidation States In \( \text{MnO}_4^{2-} \), manganese (Mn) has an oxidation state of +6. During the disproportionation, one manganese atom will be reduced to a lower oxidation state, while another will be oxidized to a higher oxidation state. ### Step 3: Determine the Products In acidic solution: - One manganese will be reduced to \( \text{Mn}^{2+} \) (oxidation state +2). - The other manganese will be oxidized to \( \text{MnO}_4^{-} \) (oxidation state +7). ### Step 4: Write the Balanced Reaction The balanced reaction for the disproportionation of \( \text{MnO}_4^{2-} \) in acidic solution can be written as: \[ 2 \text{MnO}_4^{2-} \rightarrow \text{Mn}^{2+} + \text{MnO}_4^{-} + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} \] ### Final Answer The products of the disproportionation of \( \text{MnO}_4^{2-} \) in acidic solution are: - \( \text{Mn}^{2+} \) - \( \text{MnO}_4^{-} \) ---
