The question is missing the graphics required to answer which I have attached as an image.
There are four different representations of the orientation of water molecules around chloride anion. Let's first analyze the water molecule.
We have H-O-H as the structure of water. The oxygen atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atoms, which results in a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge on the oxygen atom.
The chloride anion is a negative charge. Therefore, the water molecules should orient themselves with the hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine atom as the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms will be attracted to the negative charge of the chlorine atom.
The correct representation is shown in graph 3 which shows all hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine anion.

For this question you need to find out all of the stages of a star and the process of a nuclear fusion. Then compare what's different about it and what's the same.
Answer:
2MnO₄⁻ + 5Zn + 16H⁺ → 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O + 5Zn²⁺
Explanation:
To balance a redox reaction in an acidic medium, we simply follow some rules:
- Split the reaction into an oxidation and reduction half.
- By inspecting, balance the half equations with respect to the charges and atoms.
- In acidic medium, one atom of H₂O is used to balance up each oxygen atom and one H⁺ balances up each hydrogen atom on the deficient side of the equation.
- Use electrons to balance the charges. Add the appropriate numbers of electrons the side with more charge and obtain a uniform charge on both sides.
- Multiply both equations with appropriate factors to balance the electrons in the two half equations.
- Add up the balanced half equations and cancel out any specie that occur on both sides.
- Check to see if the charge and atoms are balanced.
Solution
Zn + MnO₄⁻ → Zn²⁺ + Mn²⁺
The half equations:
Zn → Zn²⁺ Oxidation half
MnO₄⁻ → Mn²⁺ Reduction half
Balancing of atoms(in acidic medium)
Zn → Zn²⁺
MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ → Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O
Balancing of charge
Zn → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻
MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ + 5e⁻→ Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O
Balancing of electrons
Multiply the oxidation half by 5 and reduction half by 2:
5Zn → 5Zn²⁺ + 10e⁻
2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ + 10e⁻→ 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O
Adding up the two equations gives:
5Zn + 2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ + 10e⁻ → 5Zn²⁺ + 10e⁻ + 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O
The net equation gives:
5Zn + 2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ → 5Zn²⁺ + 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O
