Hey there!:
HCl + MnO2 → MnCl2 + H2O + Cl2
* in HCl the oxidation state of Cl is -1 .
* on the product side the oxidation state is 0 .
* therefore Cl gains electrons .
* in MnO2 the oxidation state of Mn is +4
* in MnCl2 the oxidation state of Mn is +2
Therefore Mn loses electrons
Answer A
Hope That helps!
The medium provides an opposing force to slow down the wave.
<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option 5.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- To calculate the molarity of the solution after mixing 2 solutions, we use the equation:

where,
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the NaOH.
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the 
We are given:
Putting all the values in above equation, we get:

- To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

where,
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is 
are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the correct answer is Option 5.
