2 boxes of A
Because C = A + B
2 of A = 20 grams
at the other hand we have 2 of B = 10
So 20 + 10 = 30 grams
Answer:
2MnO4^- (aq) + 3C2O4^2- (aq) + 2H2O (l) --> 2MnO2(s) +6CO3^2 -(aq) + 4H^+ (aq)
Explanation:
First, write the half equations for the reduction of MnO4^- and the oxidation of C2O4^2- respectively. Balance it.
Reduction requires H+ ions and e- and gives out water, vice versa for oxidation.
Reduction:
MnO4^- (aq) + 4H^+ (aq) + 3e- ---> MnO2(s) + 2H2O (l)
Oxidation:
C2O4^2- (aq) + 2H2O (l) ---> 2CO3^2 -(aq) + 4H^+ (aq) + 2e-
Balance the no. of electrons on both equations so that electrons can be eliminated. we can do so by multiplying the reduction eq by 2, and oxidation eq by 3.
2MnO4^- (aq) + 8H^+ (aq) + 6e- ---> 2MnO2(s) + 4H2O (l)
3C2O4^2- (aq) + 6H2O (l) ---> 6CO3^2 -(aq) + 12H^+ (aq) + 6e-
Now combine both equations and eliminate repeating H+ and H2O.
2MnO4^- (aq) + 8H^+ (aq) + 3C2O4^2- (aq) + 6H2O (l) --> 2MnO2(s) + 4H2O (l) +6CO3^2 -(aq) + 12H^+ (aq)
turns into:
2MnO4^- (aq) + 3C2O4^2- (aq) + 2H2O (l) --> 2MnO2(s) +6CO3^2 -(aq) + 4H^+ (aq)
The name given to the anion of this ionic compound is that it would be called D. Permanganate. This is MnO4^-.
