    The equivalent weight of \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\] for acid solution is

    A) 79                                                         

    B) 52.16    

    C)                      158                        

    D)        31.6

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    In acidic medium following reaction takes place\[8{{H}^{+}}+5{{e}^{-}}+MnO_{4}^{-}\xrightarrow{{}}M{{n}^{2+}}+4{{H}_{2}}O\] \[\therefore \]Equivalent weight of\[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]in acidic medium\[=\frac{molecular\,\,weight\,\,of\,\,KMn{{O}_{4}}}{5}\]                 \[=\frac{158}{5}\]                 \[=31.6\]
