    When \[0.1\,\,mol\,\,MnO_{4}^{2-}\] is oxidised, the quantity of electricity required to completely oxidise \[MnO_{4}^{2-}\] is \[MnO_{4}^{-}\]                                                                                           [AIPMT 2014]

    A)  96500 C      

    B)   \[2\times 96500\,C\]

    C)  9650 C        

    D)   96.50 C

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\underset{(+7)}{\mathop{MnO_{4}^{2-}}}\,\underset{(+6)}{\mathop{MnO_{4}^{-}}}\,\]
    As per the equation, for 1 mole of\[MnO_{4}^{2-}\], 1 F of electricity is required. Thus, for 0.1 mole of\[MnO_{4}^{2-}\], 0.1 F of electricity is required.
    Since,      1 F = 96500 C
                \[\therefore \]         \[0.1F=0.1\times 96500C\]
    = 9650 C
    Hence, 9650 C of electricity is required to completely oxidise \[MnO_{4}^{2-}\]to\[MnO_{4}^{-}\].
