Question

Consider the following equations:
2Fe2++H2O2xA+yB
(in basic medium)
2MnO4+6H++5H2O2xC+yD+zE
(in acidic medium)

The sum of the stoichiometric coefficients x,y,x,yand z for products A,B,C,Dand E,respectively, is

Solution

[Fe2+Fe3++e]×2

H2O2+2e2HOΘ2Fe2++H2O22Fe3++2HOΘ(qω)

x=2 y=2

[8H++MnO4+5eMn2++4H2O]×2

[H2O2O2(g)+2H++2e]×5

16H++2MnO4+5H2O2

2Mn2++8H2O+5O2(g)+10H+

6H++2MnO4+5H2O2

2Mn2++8H2O+502(g)

So x=2 y=8 z=5

So x+y+x+y+z

=2+2+2+8+5
