Balance each of the following redox reactions occurring in basic solution.MnO−4(aq)+Br−(aq)→MnO2(s)+BrO−3(aq)Express your answer
Ahat [919]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)

Explanation :

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in basic solution are :

  • First we have to write into the two half-reactions.
  • Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.
  • Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.
  • If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the more number of oxygen are present.
  • If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydroxide ion (OH^-) at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.
  • Now balance the charge.

The half reactions in the basic solution are :

Reduction : MnO_4^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2(s)+4OH^-(aq) ......(1)

Oxidation : Br^-(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+6e^-  .......(2)

Now multiply the equation (1) by 2 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

The balanced chemical equation in a basic solution will be,

2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)
