Solution
The correct option is A20, 12, 56, 42 Let’s calculate how many electrons to be added to either side. +7X2+46e−+Mn2→2Mn
i. +7X20207→702+28e−
ii. Multiply Eq. (i) by 28 and Eq. (ii) by and add them. 28/x6e−+28Mn7+2→56Mn4+1202−7→4202+28/x6e−––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––28Mn7+2+1202−7→56Mn4++4202
