    A) 10                                

    B) 2      

    C) 1                     

    D)                  5

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[2\,Mn{{O}^{-}}_{4}+5{{C}_{2}}{{O}^{2-}}_{4}+16\,{{H}^{+}}\to \,\,2\,M{{n}^{2+}}+\,10C{{O}_{2}}\,+\,8\,{{H}_{2}}O\] The number of \[{{e}^{-}}\] involved in producing 10 mole of \[C{{O}_{2}}\] is 10, so number of \[{{e}^{-}}\] involved in producing 1 mole of \[C{{O}_{2}}\] will be 1.
