MCQ
In neutral or faintly alkaline solution, $8$ moles of permanganate anion quantitatively oxidize thiosulphate anions to produce $X$ moles of a sulphur containing product. The magnitude of $X$ is
  • A
    $5$
  • $6$
  • C
    $8$
  • D
    $9$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$6$
b
$8 MnO _4^{-}+3 S_2 O _3^{-2}+ H _2 O \rightarrow 8 MnO _2+6 SO _4^{-2}+2 OH ^{-}$

$\therefore$ Mole of $SO _4^{2-}$ formed from $8$ moles of $MnO _4^{-}=6$
