Solution

The correct option is D 13%
Here, as per the given equation, $1$ mole of $C l_{2}$ is formed from $1$ mole of $M n O_{2}$

Therefore,
Number of moles of $C l_{2}$ is $n = \frac{2.24 L}{22.4 L} = 0.1 m o l$

Therefore, Mass of $C l_{2}$ is given by $W = 87 g / m o l \times 0.1 m o l = 8.7 g$

Impurity in $M n O_{2} = 10 g - 8.7 g = 1.3 g$

Percentage impurity $= \frac{1.3 g}{10 g} \times 100 = 13 %$

Hence, the correct option is $D$
