Inneutral or faintly alkaline solution, 8 moles of permanganate anion

1.	Inneutral 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 :
Answer» SOLUTION :The involved reaction is : `8MnO_(4)^(-)+3S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)+H_(2)O to 8MnO_(2)+6SO_(4)^(2-)+2OH^(-)` 8 moles of permanganate ion GIVE 6 mols of sulphur CONTAINING product.
