Answer:

Five electrons are gained.

Explanation:

Oxidation number or oxidation state of an atom in a chemical compound is  the number of electrons lost or gained. It is also defined as the degree of oxidation of the atom in the compound.

This is a theoretical number which can help to decipher the oxidation and reduction in a redox reaction.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons. The specie which is oxidized has has elevation in its oxidation state as compared in the reactant and the products.

The given reaction is shown below as:

MnO_4^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}

Manganese in MnO_4^- has oxidation state of +7

Manganese in Mn^{2+} has an oxidation state of +2

<u>It reduces from +7 to +2 . It means that 5 electrons are gained.</u>
