In this case, according to the given information about the oxidation numbers anf the compounds given, it turns out possible to figure out the oxidation number of manganese in both MnI2, manganese (II) iodide and MnO2, manganese (IV) oxide, by using the concept of charge balance.
Thus, we can define the oxidation state of iodine and oxygen as -1 and -2, respectively, since the former needs one electron to complete the octet and the latter, two of them.
Next, we can write the following 
, since manganese has five oxidation states, and it is necessary to calculate the appropriate ones:
Next, we multiply each anion's oxidation number by the subscript, to obtain the following:
Thus, the correct choice is Manganese has an oxidation number of +2 in Mnl2 and +4 in MnO2.

Answer:
9.01 grams
Explanation:
~18.02 grams are in 1 mole of water so you'd divide that in half to get 9.01 grams.
the actual yield is the amount of Na₂CO₃ formed after carrying out the experiment
theoretical yield is the amount of Na₂CO₃ that is expected to be formed from the calculations
we need to first find the theoretical yield
2Na₂O₂ + 2CO₂ ---> 2Na₂CO₃ + O₂
molar ratio of Na₂O₂ to Na₂CO₃ is 2:2
number of Na₂O₂ moles reacted is equal to the number of Na₂CO₃ moles formed
number of Na₂O₂ moles reacted is - 7.80 g / 78 g/mol = 0.10 mol
therefore number of Na₂CO₃ moles formed is - 0.10 mol
mass of Na₂CO₃ expected to be formed is - 0.10 mol x 106 g/mol = 10.6 g
therefore theoretical yield is 10.6 g
percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100%
81.0 % = actual yield / 10.6 g x 100 %
actual yield = 10.6 x 0.81
actual yield = 8.59 g
therefore actual yield is 8.59 g
