question 53

Multiple Choice

Write an equation for the oxidation in acid solution of Mn²⁺ to MnO₄^- by XeO₃, which is reduced to Xe(g) .

• A) 6 Mn²⁺ + 5 XeO₃ → 6 MnO₄^- + 5 Xe
• B) 24 H₂O + 6 Mn²⁺ + 5 XeO₃ → 6 MnO₄^- + 5 Xe + 18 H⁺
• C) H₂O + Mn²⁺ + XeO₃ → MnO₄^- + Xe + 2 H⁺
• D) 24 H₂O + 6 Mn²⁺ + 5 XeO₃ + 30 H⁺ → 6 MnO₄^- + 5 Xe + 15 H₂O + 48 H⁺
• E) 9 H₂O + 6 Mn²⁺ + 5 XeO₃ → 6 MnO₄^- + 5 Xe + 18 H⁺
