    How many coulombs of electricity are required for reduction of 1 mole of\[MnO_{4}^{-}\]to\[M{{n}^{2+}}\]?

    A)  96500 C        

    B)  \[9.65\times {{10}^{6}}C\]

    C)  \[4.83\times {{10}^{5}}C\]     

    D)  \[1.93\times {{10}^{5}}C\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     \[\underset{1\,mol}{\mathop{MnO_{4}^{-1}}}\,+8{{H}^{+}}+\underset{5\,mole}{\mathop{5{{e}^{-}}}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}M{{n}^{2+}}+4{{H}_{2}}O\] ie, \[5\text{ }F\] Hence, electricity required \[=5\times 96500\,C\] \[=482500\,C\] \[=4.83\times {{10}^{5}}C\]
