Answer:
MnO₄⁻ + 2 H₂O + 3 e⁻ ⇒ MnO₂ + 4 OH⁻
2 moles of H₂O are on the reactant side.
Explanation:
Let´s consider the following half-reaction.
MnO₄⁻ ⇒ MnO₂
This reduction of permanganate to manganese dioxide happens in a neutral medium. The oxidation number of Mn changes from +7 to +4. When we are in a neutral medium, we can balance the reaction using the ion-electron method either as we were in acid or in basic medium. In this case, to satisfy the condition is the task (<em>water on the reactant side</em>) we will balance this half-reaction as if it were in basic media. Since Mn is already balanced, we have to balance O. We will add as many moles of water as excess of oxygen there is on 1 side, and the double of OH⁻ on the other side. Finally, we add as many electrons as we need to balance it electrically.
MnO₄⁻ + 2 H₂O + 3 e⁻ ⇒ MnO₂ + 4 OH⁻
Answer:
They both have the same number of atoms

quizlet
X is the chemical symbol of the element
Answer:
i just had a test on this with 2 attempts and got it wrong on both but i do know that the answer is not...
the steepness of the models hillside
or
the rate of erosion on the hills
so the answer is either...
the amount of water sprayed on the hills
or
the type of material used to construct the model hills
but i think its the amount of water sprayed on the hills...i hope i helped a lil ;)
Explanation:
Answer: lithium- 3 protons, 3 electrons, 3 neutrons
Oxygen- nucleon no. 16, Atomic no. 8, 8 protons, overall charge (-2)
Sorry I don't the others. Hope this helps
