The quantity of charge required to obtain \(2\text{ mol}\) of \(\text{Mn}^{2+}\) from \(\text{MnO}_4^{-}\) is:

  1. A \(2\text{ F}\)
  2. B \(10\text{ F}\)
  3. C \(5\text{ F}\)
  4. D \(1\text{ F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(10\text{ F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Oxidation state of Mn in \(\text{MnO}_4^{-}\): \(x + 4(-2) = -1 \Rightarrow x = +7\) Change in oxidation state: \(\text{Mn}^{+7} \to \text{Mn}^{+2}\) requires \(5\) electrons per mole. Charge required for \(1\text{ mol}\) of \(\text{Mn}^{2+}\): \(5\text{ F}\) Charge required for…
