Write a balanced half-reaction for the reduction of permanganate ion (Mno) to manganese ion Mn?) in acidic aqueous solution. Be sure to add physical state symbols where appropriate. 0-0 Cb X 5 2

Respuesta :

Explanation:

Permanganate is general name for the chemical compound which containes manganate (VII) ion. Permanganate(VII) ion is strong oxidizing agent as  manganese is in +7 oxidation state and can be easily reduced and oxidize others.

The balanced half reaction for reduction of the permanganate ion, [tex]MnO_4^-[/tex] to manganese ion, [tex]Mn^{2+}[/tex] is shown below:

[tex]MnO_4^-_{(aq)}+8H^+_{(aq)}+5e^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}_{(aq)}+4H_2O_{(l)}[/tex]
