Transcribed Image Text:4. Consider the following reaction: MnO, + Clo-→Mn²+ + C10,- a. Write the two half-balanced equations in acidic media. b. Write the balanced equation in acid media.
Expert Solution
Step 1

a) Two Half balanced equation in acidic medium : 

I) Reduction Half balanced equation : 

MnO4--------> Mn2+ 

Add 4H2O on right side 

MnO4------> Mn2+ + 4H2

Add 8H+ on left side 

MnO4+ 8H+ + 5e- --------> Mn2+ + 4H2

So, Balanced Half Reduction Equation is :

MnO4+ 8H+ + 5e- --------> Mn2+ + 4H2
