The First Battle of Panipat was fought between the invading forces of Babur and the Lodi Empire, which took place on 21 April 1526 in North India. It marked the beginning of the Mughal Empire. This was one of the earliest battles involving gunpowderfirearms and field artillery.
Correct Question: what is the oxidizing agent in the reaction.
2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Answer: MnO4-is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
In the reaction 2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Oxidizing agent oxidizes other molecules while the themselves get reduced.
oxidizing agents give away Oxygen to other compounds.
MnO4-is the oxidizing agent because
On the reactants side
Oxidation number of Mn in 2MnO4- is +7
Oxidation number of Cl- is -1
On the products side
Oxidation number of Mn is +2
While oxidation number of Cl is zero
Therefore the oxidizing agent is 2MnO4 because is oxidizes Chlorine from -1 to 0 while itself got reduced from oxidation state of +7 to +2
