Answer:
Explanation:
Reaction given
6 H⁺ + 2 MnO₄⁻ + 5 (COOH)₂ = 10CO₂ +8H₂O + 2 Mn⁺²
Oxidation number of Mn in MnO₄⁻
= x - 4 x 2 = -1
x = 8 -1
+ 7
Oxidation no of Mn in Mn⁺² = +2
So its oxidation no is decreased from + 7 to + 2 . Hence it is reduced.
Answer: Radioactive waste
Explanation:
The nuclear fission reaction consists of heavy atomic particles or heavy nucleus, like plutonium and uranium and in radioactive heavy metals. In the fission reaction the nucleus get split into equal masses of particles. This process is associated with release of large amount of energy. The fission of radioactive waste can cause deadly mutations in living beings.
