Answer:

Coefficient of HSO_{3}^{-} is 5

Explanation:

Oxidation: MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)

  • Balance O and H in acidic medium: MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)+8H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)+4H_{2}O(l)
  • Balance charge : MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)+8H^{+}(aq)+5e^{-}\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)+4H_{2}O(l) .............(1)

Reduction: HSO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow SO_{4}^{2-}

  • Balance O and H in acidic medium : HSO_{3}^{-}(aq)+H_{2}O(l)\rightarrow SO_{4}^{2-}(aq)+3H^{+}(aq)
  • Balance charge : HSO_{3}^{-}(aq)+H_{2}O(l)-2e^{-}\rightarrow SO_{4}^{2-}(aq)+3H^{+}(aq) ..............(2)

[2\times eq(1)]+[5\times eq(2)] -

Balanced equation: 2MnO_{4}^{-}(aq)+5HSO_{3}^{-}(aq)+H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 2Mn^{2+}(aq)+5SO_{4}^{2-}(aq)+3H_{2}O(l)

Coefficient of HSO_{3}^{-} is 5

A plate moves 200 m in 10,000 years. What is its rate in cm/year?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2 cm/year</h2>

Explanation:

To find the rate in cm/year we must first convert 200 m into cm

1 m = 100 cm

if 1 m = 100 cm

Then 200 m = 200 × 100 = 20 ,000 cm

So the rate is

<h2>\frac{20000}{10000}</h2>

<u>Reduce the fraction with 10,000</u>

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 cm/year</h3>

Hope this helps you
