The following chemical reaction occurs in a basic solution.
Mg2+(aq) + MnO2(aq) + OH−(aq) → Mg(s) + MnO4−(aq) + H2O(l)
How many moles of electrons are transferred when the equation is balancedusing the smallest whole-number coefficients?
+2 +4 0 +7
Given reaction is Mg2+(aq) + MnO2(aq) + OH−(aq) → Mg(s) + MnO4−(aq) + H2O(l)
Oxidation half reaction : MnO2(aq) → MnO4−(aq)
Balance O atoms : MnO2(aq) +2H2O → MnO4−(aq)
Balance H atoms : MnO2(aq) +2H2O(l)+4OH-(aq) → MnO4−(aq) + 4H2O(l)
OR MnO2(aq) + 4OH-(aq) → MnO4−(aq) + 2H2O(l)
Balance charge : MnO2(aq) + 4OH-(aq) → MnO4−(aq) + 2H2O(l) + 3e- -----(1)
Reduction half reaction : Mg2+(aq) → Mg(s)
Balance charge : Mg2+(aq) + 2e- → Mg(s) ----(2)
[2x(1) ] + [3x(2)] gives we get the overall balanced equation as
2MnO2(aq) + 8OH-(aq) + 3 Mg2+(aq) + 6e- → 3Mg(s) + 2MnO4−(aq) + 4H2O(l) + 6e-
OR 2MnO2(aq) + 8OH-(aq) + 3 Mg2+(aq) → 3Mg(s) + 2MnO4−(aq) + 4H2O(l)
So 6 moles of electrons are transferred.
