In acidic medium `MnO_(4)^(2-)`

A

disproportionates to `MnO_(2)`to `MnO_(4)^(-)`

B

is oxidized to `MnO_(4)^(-)`

C

is reduced to `MnO_(2)`

D

is reduced to `Mn^(2+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`MnO_(4)^(2-)` disproportionates in acidic medium as follows `:`
`3MnO_(4)^(2-) + 4H^(+) rarr 2MnO_(4)^(-) + MnO_(2) + 2H_(2)O`
