When the following oxidation–reduction reaction in acidic solution is balanced, what is the lowest whole-number coefficient for
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

b. 16, reactant side

Explanation:

Let's consider the following redox reaction.

MnO₄⁻(aq) + I⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq) + I₂(s)

We can balance it using the ion-electron method.

Step 1: Identify both half-reactions

Reduction: MnO₄⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq)

Oxidation: I⁻(aq) → I₂(s)

Step 2: Perform the mass balance, adding H⁺(aq) and H₂O(l) where appropriate

MnO₄⁻(aq) + 8 H⁺(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(s)

Step 3: Perform the charge balance, adding electrons where appropriate

MnO₄⁻(aq) + 8 H⁺(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(s)  + 2 e⁻

Step 4: Multiply both half-reactions by numbers so that the number of electrons gained and lost are equal

2 × (MnO₄⁻(aq) + 8 H⁺(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l))

5 × (2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(s)  + 2 e⁻)

Step 5: Add both half-reactions and cancel what is repeated on both sides

2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 16 H⁺(aq) + 10 e⁻ + 10 I⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 I₂(s)  + 10 e⁻

The balanced reaction is:

2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 16 H⁺(aq) + 10 I⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 I₂(s)

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Explanation:

A substance that produces an excess of hydroxide ion (-OH) in aqueous solution.

       This is an arrhenius Base

According to the arrhenius theory, a base is a substance that combines with water to produce excess hydroxide ions, OH⁻ in an aqeous solution. Examples are :

  • Sodium hydroxide NaOH
  • Potassium hydroxide KOH

A substance that produces an excess of hydrogen ion (H+) in aqueous solution

      This is an arrhenius Acid

An arrhenius acid is a substance that reacts with water to produce excess hydrogen ions in aqueous solutions.

Examples are;

  • Hydrochloric acid HCl
  • Hydroiodic acid HI
  • Hydrobromic acid HBr
