`2.68xx10^(-3)` moles of solution containing anion `A^(n+)` require `1.61xx10^(-3)` moles of `MnO_(4)^(-)` for oxidation of `A^(n+)` to `AO_(3)^(-)` in acidic medium. What is the value of `n`?

Answer» Correct Answer - 2
Redox changes are:
For `KMnO_(4):Mn^(7+)+5erarrMn^(2+)`
For `A^(n+): A^(n+)rarrA^(5+)+(5-n)e`
Now meq.of `A^(n+)="meq.of" KMnO_(4)`
`( becausemeq.="mole"xx"valencyfactor"xx1000)`
`2.68xx10^(-3)xx(5-n)xx1000=1.61xx10^(-3)xx5xx1000`
`therefore n=1.99approx 2`
