The equivalent weight of `KMnO_(4)` in (a) neutral medium, (b) acidic medium and (c ) alkaline medium is `M//..` ( where `M` is mol.wt. of `KMnO_(4)`)A. Molecular weightB. `("Molecular weight")/(2)`C. `("Molecular weight")/(3)`D. `("Molecular weight")/(5)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`KMnO_(4)` in neutral medium changes to `MnO_(2)`
`underset((+7))(MnO_(4)^(-))to underset((+4))(MnO_(2))`
Thus n-factor = change in O.N. = 3
`therefore "Eq. wt." = ("Mol.wt.")/(3)`
